Yeah, what Sergey said. Early offset wheels on a late offset car won't work, they will stick way out past the fenders like those lowered trucks that were the rage in the late 80's where people wanted wheels that stuck out 2 inches past the fender edges. Unless you can find a set of the elusive "negative spacers" that take some millimeters out of the equation. Hogwarts may have a pair in stock, call and ask for Mr. Potter.

Oh, and my vote is for red, whatever wheel you get.

Photoshopping black wheels is NOT easy...my picture looks like crap... I'm sure someone else could do better...

early offset were all of them up to 87 i believe, 86 down were early, but 85.5 they changed to the late dash and such.
