So I will admit it, when it comes to offset I have no idea what i am doing. I am in love with the BBS LM's and I want to put a set on my car but I am not sure what offset to look for to get a flush look. Idealy I want the fitment as the car in the picture below.

I truly appreciate any information to help me understand this better.

depends on what kind of suspension you will be running and how wide of a wheel you want. Head to the wheel directory and pretty much all of your questions will be answered there..

Check out flush fitment guide here http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=7535

And you can use this. Put stock size and offset in top and proposed in bottom to see how much poke you want http://www.willtheyfit.com/index.php...et2=45#content

And, for a cheap interim solution 25mm spacers with wheel studs make the stock wheels pretty flush http://www.redlineperformance.co.nz/...-5-x-100-25mm/

And, to get that look you'll need to lower. Coilovers or at least some lowering springs.
