If you are serious you would have called Varrstoen and spelled their name right.

Why would the tire wear be a concern when buying new wheels? If you shim the rear and give yourself stupid camber the tires will wear like ****. Get a proper alignment and you'll be fine

10 posts in and you found the info, this is why your got the responses that you did. It got you off this thread long enough to go look it up on your own. I wouldnt say we are ******, I would say you were being lazy. I had the same questions a few months back, figured out the look and size I want by searching. Not making an unintelligent thread. Also you could have called Varrstoen today and got exactly what you were looking for. Get ready to get your wallet out.

Exactly. Sick and tired of people thinking that posting "use google noob" is in any way helpful.

I have Varrstoen's......... 18x9.5, +30 offset all around and 5mm spacers upfront to clear the brembos. running 235's up front and 225 in back (stretched alot), but im about to be running 235's all around....... my fenders are also rolled & pulled, they will rub if you dont do that and go low.......

I think most of the people using the internet nowadays know how to use google. Telling someone to go use google is like telling someone to breath. Just isn't helpful.
