I've seen 20 for offset. Would that be too aggressive?

Where have you seen +20, and on what size wheels? I don't know that they would fit. You can always add a spacer to get the wheels further out if +35 isn't enough for your tastes.

I just saw an ad on ebay for a 18 x 8.75 with a 20 offset. It was for a XXR 527 wheel set.

Personally, as long as the rim isn't hiding under the fender it's ok with me. I'm not into that hellaflush or go home pack.

+20 looks fantastic if you're car is lowered (at least 1.5 inches) and you get the right camber. See page 1 of this thread, silver fr-s with gold 530's...mmmm.

I know they are available in +20 but I think most people are running +35.

I would stick with +35 all around, it's a really nice fitment as is. You could do +20 in the back i suppose but i wouldn't recommend it up front.
