Some of the guys are running as high as +72 to clear larger tires in the back. I think one guy has a +80 offset for whatever reason in the rear.

Thanks!

But it's diiiiirrrrrrrrrrrrty. :( I haven't washed it since uh... I forget. 2007 maybe? Don't remember. I did shoot some pictures at NTB after I got my alignment, but the sun was behind the car so you can't see the wheel gap too well (stupid me). I'll post those up in a sec- got a more important post to write first.

:D
 
K, more pics... have to roll fenders- I'm crashing into them when the car squats in the front:
