Considering Volk RE30 in Flat Black
A guy on my local Craigslist posted up Volk RE30 rims for $1500. They're flat black. The size, however, is somewhat bothersome. They're 18x8.5 but the offset is +50. The high offset should make the wide rims ok, right? I was thinkin about running some thin tires in order to prevent rubbing. Maybe 235/40/18 or 225/40/18 even. I'm not dropped right now, but I will probably end up dropping on Neuspeed Sport Cup with the race springs sometime soon. Any opinions? The rims are also coming with lugs, touch up paint, and wheel socks.
Here's the pic he posted.

What's in your
iTrader: (2)
go for 235/40s! the 225s i have by nankang is a little stretched and doesn't look that great. I'm on 18x8.5s offset: +45. It doesn't rub at a drop either, i've tried. I want to go for 245s or wider, but I haven't searched up if anyone has done that so i'm scared to test it first.

^actually, I've rubbed with 18x8 +40 offset without a drop, so I'd rather not push it. hahaha
I'm feeling the te37 alot more than re30, though. I'm wondering if I should just be patient and hope for a cheap set of te37 to pop up on our beautiful black market
The price, however, is just phenomenal, imo
