I think they also look the best too.
If you have more offset(+50mm), you can use a 10mm spacer(-10) to get back to +40, decreasing the track, but if you have +35, you have +35 as far as making the track any less, nothing you can do there except narrow the beam more. If you are close, it is nice to have a few mm extra offset so you can use spacers to space the wheel out to exactly where you want it depending on the tire manufacturer etc, that is if you like a snug fit. Remember that spacers require studs/nuts, or longer lug bolts, and they should always maintain the hubcentric nature.

ok so I dont want anything more than a +50mm offset but if I do, I need -10mm spacers but the same rims up front I would need to narrow it to be a +35 or is that what I want upfront? So would the narrowing be ok with a 2inch narrow or would i need to narrow it more?And yes Im trying to get a lightweight wheel, and the tracklites for some reason, thee price dont stay, it was 195$ each when I posted it, hmmm oh well, heres some others I was looking at
Has a +38 offset

another +38 offset

So I'd need a spacer to equal a +55 offset with these 2 sets right?
Also theres a rim called 5Zigen FNO1R-C, there available for FWD or RWD, they weigh 14lbs (ive held one, they feel lighter) and are available in 15-24" .Offsets for the RWD version is +33 and +42mm for the FWD version, there made from 1 piece lightweight aluminum casting,just only problem I got is would any of these wheels look right?
heres a pic of my car, and you guys can help me (please?)
its 2 toned, baby blue and almond white (similar to the VW stock offwhite)
