So, I should stick ridiculously wide wheels on my car because you say so? For what reason? Wider contact patch? I have yet to break traction. I guess that's because my car is so slow...

Just because it's FWD doesn't mean you have to have stupid high offsets. You can acually fit some decently low offset wheels on your car, that would make it look 10 million times better, than going with such high offset cookie cutter wheels.

Some cars require high offsets. My car came stock with +53 offset wheels. Anything lower than 46 on a WRX rubs like crazy.

I was kidding too. I guess yall don't know my humor yet.

I've currently got a 38mm offset and the tire and rim are about even with the fender. I'd love to get a 40mm offset to bring em in just a bit, but 42mm works just fine. And what do you mean "cookie cutter" wheels? The offset just specifies how far the mounting point of the rim is off center. a 42mm offset means the "hub" is 42mm OUTSIDE of the centerline of the rim.
