Question for someone who knows about the AWD 2IS Offset. I have noticed that my front wheels poke out more than my rears. If i wanted the gap and look to be the same front and rear whats the offset i would need to get. Im considering buying Spacers to push them out and make them look more even????

Thanks for the quick reply! If I can't find lobster claw rims, this would be plan B

God i'm so torn between 18s or 19s. At first I thought that 18s would be too small on a 2IS, but then I saw some of your cars! It can really be pulled off with the proper drop and specs!
