so im confused, if that picture of the lonesome wheel is 17x9.5 +35, why do these look like they have less concave but yet they have a more agressive offset?

Basically, yes.

More aggressive, less concave.

^if you want the concave face in a 17 you are going to want to go 17x9.5 +35 or 17x9 +22. the issue with concave face is it doesnt clear the bigger sets of bbk where as the one you have listed will.

and i simply posted a picture for you to see that the face does concave because thats what you were in search of, maybe instead of a response like "dick" in the future you can ask for more detail.

thought you were trying to be a smartass sorry, i was expecting a picture of wheels on a car not just one wheel sitting on the floor but i understand. well i think 17x9 +22 is a little too agressive for stock fenders without a roll of any type, so i guess my option would be 17x9.5 +35. out of all the 17x9.5 ce28s would you say +35 has the most concave? (for offsets that fit fenders without having to pull them)

17x9+22 might clear bbk's and is a little more concave than 17x9.5 +35, and wont clear bbk's but it works best on stock fenders and if you want that to work you'll need the usual (roll, flare, relocate bumper tab) unless you plan on running 225/40/17 tires all around

Personally I'd run 17x9.5 +35x4 with 245/40/17 tire with an extremely flared front fender with -3 camber front and back if i was you GL

Your other option, if you wanted to run 255x4, would be 17x10 +45 all around. Overall it's 4mm less aggressive on the front side, and with a 255 it would be about the same amount of stretch as a 245 on a 9.5.

I would be sad if you did it cause that's exactly what I want to run
