Rota P45's

So I was thinking about trying to grab up a set of Rota P45R's, but was wondering what is the best offset for the wheels. I can get them in a +20 or +30 offset. What do you think the best choice for that wheel would be as far as the offset ???

I would def. go with the +20. You will need to do some fender rolling in the rear and relocate two of the rear bumper mounting points, but the +20 will look nice and aggressive. The +30 just look too "sunken" in to the fenders.

I know that the 17x9 P45R's also come in a +25 offset.

You thinking 17's or 18's?

They will require a spacer also.

P45R 17x9 +25 FTW. Wrap them in 255/40 -17 and call it a day. If you are lowred on Tein S-Tech's you'll need to roll the rear fenders a bit....if you are lowred on anything else, you will be fine. Plus, you won't need any spacers, as these wheels clear everything just fine.

I have these on my Evo now 18x9 +30 I believe, and you will definitely need spacers up front.

They don't come in a 18x9....they do have a 18x9.5 +30 offset though. Yes, you WILL need spacers to use these wheels. IMO, they stick out too far from the wheel well. With the 17x9 +25, they sit perfectly flush. I don't care for the monster truck look.
