Gram Lights 57Xtreme Matte Graphite (18x8.5)

I'm looking to install the Gram Lights 57Xtreme Matte Graphite in a squared setup the only difference would be in the offset, 33mm in the back and 40 in the front.

Does anyone have pictures of this setup?

Just wondering, why not just go 18 x 9.5? Has a more concave look to it.

The offset between the 2 would then create a non-squared setup.

I bet he doesn't want poke in the front. +33 is going to a little.

Also, its been covered in anther thread. you can get type II face in 18x8.5 (concave)

Yeah, I would like to able to rotate the tires and use 235/40r18 all around.

The difference in offset would be to make the rear tires more flush against the body of the car. Since I've noticed the front stock wheels seem to be hidden more than the rears.

ALSO, the link is broken.

245/35 is stock diameter. Possibly lighter too. Link works for me... Get spacers for rear of you want to rotate. Same offset all around. +40 or +42
