So, what's a good offset for our cars? I'm going rim shopping again but want it flush instead of in a little.

Measure the distance (in mm) you want the new rim to stick out to. Then, go to this website:
wheel offset calculator You will still need to check your turning and brake clearances. Hope it helps. -Jay WTF, sorry for hijacking your thread, but I have a question for you. When you were describing the Tein springs, you said something like "they feel like stock." By this do you mean that they are as soft and you still get the same amount of nose dive when braking, the same amount of up and down movement when shifting and the same body roll in corners? Or did you mean that those things are improved, but the comfort is as good as stock? I couldn't tell if your statement was critisism or praise. Thanks.
