need help on wheels

Thank you will I have problems in clearance in the front? Will the spacer in the rear give me problems as far as vibrations at high speeds?

clearance isn't really directly influenced by offset. brake clearance has to do with the thickness of the hub mounting surface otherwise known as the backpad. This determines the distance between the spokes and the brake. This distance is known as the 'x-factor'

Look at jeff all knowledgeable now, taking my job after all my caring for you haha. Jeff is right, honestly you have to get something you like that is in your price range and run spacers if you have an issue with brake clearance, which we will try to stay away from of course.

That is awesome, that is usually real tough to get money from Valet companies. It must be a big company to do that. I hope all works out, Let me know so we can get it going. Your car is on the right path thats for sure.
