Looks sick bro. I think the offset is perfect in this particular wheel. Just from looking at different 18X9's I think the offsets vary from one wheel company to the next. I have seen some 18X9's in a 35mm offset stick out as far as those do if not more. Just an observation.

it's not b/c of the wheel, that's due to a given person's setup.

camber, tire width, lateral links, spacers. ect.
