I'm looking at buying a pair of either 17 or 18 inch wheels to put on the rear of my A10 2018 GT for drag racing. I'm looking at buying some wheels from some of my buddies in our local track scene; they're cheap, look good, and I like supporting those guys when I can. My only concern is that these wheels are more common for JDM applications, and I'm not sure if the offsets might be too aggressive for what I want to do.

Options I'm looking at are:
18x10.5 +20 or +15
18x10 +20
18x9.5 +30
17x10 +22

I know a 17x9.5 would be really good, but the only offset offered for these is +5 and I'm sure that's way out in left field.

I'm aiming to run 305's and probably a 40 or 45 sidewall. Tires will likely be Mickey Thompson Et Street SS or R. Car is stock height right now, but won't be forever, and boost is the plan down the line as well.

Any thoughts? Can some of these work or should I just bite the bullet on some race stars?
