Default Wheel offset

I was wondering if you all could help me with an offset for my wifes xB2 i really like the look of the XXR 512s but after searching the 0 offset is gonna stick out and i dont think thats gonna look good at all. I was looking at American racing Torq Thrust II and the offsets run 10 and also -11. I was thinking about sticking with stock tires till they wear out. and the wheels run 16x8. let me know what you all think thanks for any input you could give me.

All those offsets are way too low, I don't suggest trying it. If you want 16x8 wheels to be flush with the fenders, and not stick out, then you want to be in the +35 offset range. You can get away with a little lower offset than that, but you would then stick out past the fenders and need to run stretched tires.

When you push fitment like this, the drop you are on also becomes more critical for determining if you will rub, and if you will need to have the fenders rolled.

What size tires do they have on them?

I know you're on TRD springs now, but you may have rubbing issues when you go to coilovers or air bags.
