OK, I've read many of the "offset" threads, but must be a little too thick in the head...so here goes. I have opportunity for great price on these wheels, but they are 18x7.5 w/45 offset. I want to use the OEM tires on them (michelin P235/45 R18 94V).

QUESTION 1: Can someone tell me what the positioning of the wheels/tires will be with this width/offset versus the factory wheel

QUESTION 2: The finish on these is OPAL and I welcome comments about appearance on my Polished Metal Metallic
Thanks,
Joe

1) They will stick out 10mm wider than stock, which will look good.
2) I am not a fan of the rims, but if you like them then that is all that matters. The opal will look good on your PMM.

Well, this is the 3rd wheel I've picked that I liked and it is DISCONTINUED! The search continues.....
