FYI, we carry the SSR Competition and we do not recommend the SSR Competition with a 50mm offset as an approved fitment for your vehicle. Regarding offset information, please click on the following link:

The 50 offset will tuck them pretty far under the car and you may have rubbing issues on the inside with the front wheels ... I don't think it will look that good either! I would try to find something with a 40 offset or less ...
Hope this helps!

i have roja formula fives which are very light 2 piece rims that can be ordered in custom offsets, but they are very expensive.

i have the Ro_Ja F5's..3 are still in the box...i have 18X8 w/40 offset which are 22lbs..bought them because of the deal i got...going with another wheel now so i put them in the scionlife classifieds for $500+shipping...no takers though..guess $125 is too much for a forged 2 piece these days..i'll probably just ebay them when i get around to it.

i'm looking for 17's. i might just go with some cheap msr wheels for now (depends on what the weight of the stock wheels)
