Good, you made it sound like there was no chance in hell of making this work or have it work. Plus, if the negative offset is so little (which it is), I highly doubt there that the bad effects would show to be a huge problem in the suspension setup.
Anyone else wanna chime in?

I can't say much here, just that you should pm me with the lip depth you desire and the tire size you intend to use. There are always sacrifices, however if this is what you want than you gotta pay the price. lol.
i'll go over the details with you via pm if you're interested. If the do luck wheel is the one you want than my further assistance will not help as you've acquired all the info you need.
I see that you would need at least a 25 to 30mm fender flare to get this -7 to work. I don't know tho. Just did that in my head real quick.
Peace, rishie

There has to be a way to setup the suspension to fit these wheels without messing things up. There's always a way LOL, and I won't have any problems getting fender flares, I can order a set of 50mm widebody ones from Japan for quite a reasonable price right now.
What's the stock offset anyway? I wanna do these calculations without having to guess about how much offset the wheels will really have. Tice, I just understood what you said about the wheels having more then 2 inches of offset and it being a lot, I kinda forgot that those 2 inches would be EXTRA offset rather then just that from zero offset.
In other words, the -7 wold make the inner side of the wheel lose 4 inches to the hub. Kinda like this gheto *** pic LOL.
Imagine that the negative offset rim is the same size, that pic just illustrates the problem that the inner side is way to close to the center of the hub putting more stress on it.
