Wheel and Tire Combo

[latvianrkey]

OK, I want your guys opinion on this before I purchase:

These are the wheels I am getting:
http://www.wheelspecs.com/specs/wheelmodels/636&sort=pcd
Enkei G'spec GTV's. The size I am planning on running is 18x8. I have basically two options for offset: 35 and 44. If I get the 44 i will run 225/40/18's and if I get the 35, I will run 245/40/18's. First, someone please correct me if my combination will not fit or rub. I have a '97 GSX. I like the deep lip look of the 35mm offset, but do not want it to stick out too far. I figure it would stick out approx. 24mm by this calculator: http://toy4two.home.mindspring.com/offset.html

Let me know what you guys think of this combo. I do not want to compromise the handling characteristics in a negative manner to achieve a "look."

Thanks.

I think you may run into clearance issues with the 245's even with 35mm offset. 235's will fit though.

I don't really think you will have any "stickout" with either combo you mentioned.
