    shopping around for some new wheels and i was just curious about your suggestions for tire size. the wheels are 18x8 and i have the choice between a +45 or a +35 offset. the questions is which offset would be best and what tire size would look best. id like to go as wide as possible without rubbing obviously. my intensions are to lower the car with some coilovers, just enough to remove the wheel gap. and id like to throw some spacers in the back cuz i like big butts.

    so with all that info said, which offset is best and what tire size is best for my intended application?
