Parents packing up stuff now then heading out. I hope they make good time.
They are heading to Florida via Houston and meeting up with Justin to drop off his rifle for me and picking up the infamous foodsaver from when I left it at his house in December lol.
I hope my dad doesn't see that he is Asian and have flash backs of Vietnam while holding an M16. That could be a bad scenario...........

Well, considering it's only Justin's lower half that's Asian, unless he's pantless, he'll be alright.
DAD: "Hey Charlie, wut er you doing round these parts..."
CRUSTACEAN: "Uh, Mr. Sauceja, I'm Justin, I'm your son's friend looking to pick up mah gun"
DAD: "Yeah, Charlie (whirring chopper blades in head) you expect me to just hand this gun over ta yer yeller azz, huh"
CRUSTACEAN: "Sir, I'm now leaving, please have Jeff call me in reference to shipping"
DAD: "Oh, I see how it is, boy...chemical warfare, what's that wet stream making it's way down yer pantleg!?!?"

If they figure the offset #number, by putting the width of the rim into consideration, then that's right.
We only have to look at offset number to find out where the rim sits.
Since 20mm spacers sits perfect (IMO) with stockies
Which is +45 becoming +25
+25 is the best offset
Edit:
Let's take the 3rd picture with +10 offset and make the rims 7.75" width
.75" is 20mm
Wouldn't that suppose to give 10mm more poke to both side???
Offset is the that little distance with the center line and the hub
Has nothing to do with where the ends sit (as I understood)
That's why confuses me

what I posted only takes into account where the face of the rim will sit in relation to the hub...that does NOT take into account the width of rim...
I didn't want to further complicate by bringing into the equation what Justin just added...lips and/or concave...that changes things in a major way because you'd have to now clear the bbk or caliper AND have some lip and know where it should end up in relation to the fender.
I'm not even that clear on that yet...i know of "hi disk" low disk etc...

and then taking apart everything and selling it
Depends on you. I am not a mod freak, but if I bought the car (not loan)
I wouldn't wait for to pay off most of it...

After 5-6 months of ownership, I put coils and wheels on, followed by A-Spec kit and all the other stuff I have.
Still making my payments all along too!

Got you J.
As I know from that xxr530 thread (I went over that 30 page for 2 times)
+20 offset doesn't clear the brembos, people use 6mm spacers
Which makes that we need at least +26 to clear brembos..
So I am right about the width of the rim issue
If I get +35 offset and 8.75" rim
45-35= 10mm
+
.75 (20mm) on both sides = 10mm on one side
Will poke 20mm more than the stock
Which is what I wanted
