Wheel Help PLZ!
Hey guys, so im looking to buy a new set of wheels and i want to get 18 x 8. Im thinking work xd9s in the silver finish, wat do u think? Now my question is what offset should i get, i dont really know what an offset really is. My car is really low, and i want a nice clean look and for the wheels not to really stick out.
Here are some pics of my car to get an idea of how low i am:

Whoa, for such a long list of modifications on your 2006, one would expect you to atleast know are bolt pattern. 
Anyway dBski11 the Work XD9s are an amazing set of wheels, another member on this forum has them I believe its CGPTSX for reference. Anyway are bolt pattern is 5x114.3 and stick with a relatively high offset. I believe CGPTSX is about flush in the rear and he had to get the fender rolled. Offset btw, in the simplest terms possible is how far your wheel sits from your fender line. Lower the number for example +18, +24, is a wide wheel higher the offset, +45,+55, the skinner the wheel is. Check the tire and suspension thread, here’s a link you can start by reading this;

Hope this helps?

Nice choice on the wheels
For the drop that you have, I would say go with a higher offset, like 48 or 50. I am dropped pretty much the same, and bought some 18x8 Advans with a 45 offset. From what i hear, I might rub sometimes, so I would say going with a higher offset would be better.
For the bolt pattern, I believe ours is 5x114.3.
I hope that helped, and if anyone has anymore input, help this guy out
