im sorry but this has got to be one stupid question.
if im right hes asking if the offset of the alloy would effect the visual dish size ..... dont know how anyone would not know it wouldnt.
if you want a big dished looked stay away from the common as f**k lensos.
im running hot tuning.
if your running anything more than 7j youl have to raise he car high enough for the wheels/tyres to be above the arches otherwise they will rub.
iv got 7j et 45 to go on and they will be run with spacers too so are going to be sticking out of the arches alot! but thats the look i want.

look for rial alloys on ebay... they always have a big dish.

Why is it a stupid question? People don't learn anything if they don't ask! I couldn't understand why when looking at alloys you could get the same model 7.5j alloy with different offsets ie et20 and et38, the offset is the center of the rim to the face hub? So I thought a different offset would change the visual affect of the dish
