They are Compomotive MO 6 spoke. Had to get them dished at the factory to fit over the brakes. Also had a satin finish, which they don't normaly do. I'm well happy with them. The cars so much livelier now rather than with the 18s I had before.

As for white, no, no, no. Black wheels on white car, Ok, White wheels on Black car, no.

Not sure what the offset is, I'll find out. They were measured and ordered for me by someone else I'll ask them.

Width wise, they are 17X8. Arches had to be rolled, and we are running at least 2deg camber on rear to fit them in. We might stretch the rear arches out a little, in case we decide to take the camber off.
