Why didnt you go with the usual offsets that everyone else runs +35f, +42r?
They definately look great and those arent aggressive, at least they dont look it.
Did you have to do any rolling and what are you lowered on?

Yes I had to rolled my rear fenders and I wanted enough clearance for future BBK.

How's the fitment and quality? I heard it isn't as great as OEM. But it does look spot on from your pictures.

Still like the oem kit more in my opinion. However, can't hate on a rare expensive piece.

Love the snow pic! Can't agree more about the capabilities in the snow, with VSA off the only time the snow stops me is when the wheel wells get packed in. This car becomes incredibly tail happy with the diffs locked on snow, even more so then my old Subaru.

Yeah. That's why I went ahead and had the body shop put it on after they painted it and my front bumper. They even told me the extra work they had to put in on it to get it to fit properly. It's definitely not a spot on fit like the OEM front lip.

Thanks! The body shop ended up having to mold the lip to my bumper. That definitely wasn't in my plan at all to do. The fitment wasn't working well enough for just a simple bolt on.

I still havent been able to figure out these offsets. Wouldnt the lower offset make it more aggressive and stick out more and more fender rolling? I guess Im so used to seeing everyone do the +35, +42 those were the best fits.

Do they sit flush? or they stick in a little more?

You just gave me another option in wheel sizes PotMilkz....I was stuck on the 20x9/20x10.5+35,42, but now with your wheel spec I can consider those too and probably not as much fender rolling.

I wonder if Vossen has those offsets.
