Question for the 6MT 3G TL owners!!!

I've got an '04 TL 6speed and I've got the Brembo calipers. It's been hard finding wheels that look good and fit over those calipers!

Let me know what your wheel / tire specs are and how you got your wheels to fit right (flush).

Help.....
I'm about to just go stock!!!
Thanks everyone!

Honestly, there is only 1 response that would be acceptable here. That is, 18" x 8.5" Gunmetal A-SPEC's FTMFW! I would recommended a 255/40/18.

BTW....
The wheels that the tire shop fitted for my car are:
20x8.5 20 offset
225/35zr/20

Basically they told me that these were the only wheels that would work with the brembos....

Not ryl. This place is rife with wheel whores, there are a multitude of options.

I'm just looking for a nice tight looking fit. My stick out and my rear end looks high especially from behind. I just want to fix it and possibly get a different wheel that gives me the look I'm going for. So I'm just trying to get an idea of what other 6 spd TLs are fitted with.

If you want flush and clear brakes.... my fitment is 19x9 +34 F (R-disk made to clear brake) and 19x10 +36 R (O-disk which gives me a fat lip).... I would say that it is perfectly flush..
