Default Vorsteiner V-309 Offset - Please Help!

Hey guys I am finally ready to purchase some new wheels for my car. I'm going with 20x9" (front) and 20x11" (back). I don't want the wheels to stick out at all and don't want to mess with the cambers. I am given the option to select my own offset and would like to know what offset would fit best. Any ideas? Thanks.

Plan on getting these in textured gunmetal.

I really like those wheels! You need to decide on what size tire and camber settings you want to run before we can give you an accurate offset.

I would like to leave it with stock camber settings. Tire sizes I want are 255/30/20 305/25/20. Don't want the stretched look.



Here is a picture I photoshopped...

You'll want 6.5"+ of back spacing for the front to clear the calipers so ck wats available with the below targets:

ET32-38 front (20x9); ET18-22 for rear (20x11).

Ultimately you re at your own risk cause I've not seen he wheels personally so don't know the shape of the spokes or thickness.

I went with the Venaci 99RR. Very similar wheels (except the center recessed area). I went with +12 front +5 rear. Running 2.2 front camber and 1.7 rear camber. 255 front and 305 rear tires. Should sit completely flush.

Getting a custom colorway setup though.

Hey op- when u mentioned you don't want to mess wit the camber I thought you meant stock height.
If you're willing to lower the ride and just get the camber for the rear close to stock, you can use much more aggressive offsets. I think the spokes bending inward will prevent you from having a deep lip due to caliper clearance so if you run more aggressive offset, you can obviously gain more lip width.

For instance ET15 front ET12 rear.
