Default another offset question.

i've decided to sell my volk gt-ps and get some nkb cups. now the question i have is will a 16x9 +30 rear 16x8 +35 front fit and sit flush. i'm looking at the nkb xb and then i went to memoryfab.com and that seems to be the only offset they offer in that size. from what i understand the nkb xb is sitting on the cups also. so either they have custom offsets or they are using these. someone let me know!! wheres scionvan when you need him!

two questions in one thread both gone unanswered. great source of information right? i guess i can answer the offset question offset is the distance of the spokes to the edge of the rim. 0 would be the center -10 would be more towards the inside +10 would be more towards the outside.

No. It's the distance in mm from the centerline of the wheel to the hub mounting surface. TireRack info link.
