Which offset would be best for my hatch when i lower it? 42 offset or 40 offset? The wheels are 16x7, and i plan on lowering my car 2 inches or more.

barely any difference, but +40 would me more likely to rub on the fender lip with the wheel turned while going over a bump.

Rock some camber and get +30 on it and start knocking the arch liner back.

Tyre tucking is 90s :thumb:

I like should look good.

Would look better if they have some very tasty amounts of dish ;) Not the 1/2" you find on some :P

The 40 off set would look good and you don't have to worry about anything.

I believe it will to. I just had to have some other opinions first because I havent ever looked into rims this much. and i wasnt sure if it would rub or not once i lower my car. :thumb:
