Can you take a picture of forward facing and regular mount side by side? Also, what is the offset difference? 10MM faces?

Mounting the face on the backside is somewhere around -12 to -15et difference in offset.

For everyone asking about wheel fitment:

Front wheels: 18x8 ET 50

Rear Wheels: 18x9.5 ET 55

Reverse mounting the rears will drop the ET ~12-15mm so ~ET42-ET40. This is an aggressive fitment but will just fit. The fronts I amy want to run a very small spacer (3-7mm) once I get them mounted I will see what I think.

Hopefully in the next few weeks I will mount tires and install them. The debate is which car to install them on, what does everyone think:
  • White C2 Coupe
  • Cobalt Blue C2 Coupe
  • Guards Red RSA

I am leaning White coupe....

It's all trial and error Nathan, but I'm running same specs as you and have a 5mm spacer on the rear. I tried one on the front, but was a bit tight.

Enjoy

I'm running a 3mm on the front, more so to avoid some of the wheel well rubbing on the passenger side. I'd say put them on the red car, but I slightly biased.
