Default Motegi Touge wheels

I was shopping for new wheels and found a set of Motegi Touge wheels. They aren't too expensive and have that deep dish look I like. Anyone tried these wheels out? I'm considering them in black or gunmetal. The only problem I see is the fitment. Can I get away with a non-staggered setup? Also, I have Eibach pro-kit springs.





Here's the list of sizes... (sorry for the sloppy copy/paste)

Part No. Size Offset Backside Bolt Pattern Weight
2178-896525 18x9 +25 6 5x4.5 26 lbs.
2178-8948 18x9 +12 5 1/2 4x4.5 26 lbs.
2178-896512 18x9 +12 5 1/2 5x4.5 26 lbs.
2178-87580 18x7.5 +45 6 5x100 25 lbs.
2178-87565 18x7.5 +45 6 5x4.5 25 lbs.
2178-87549 18x7.5 +45 6 4x100 25 lbs.
2178-87548 18x7.5 +45 6 4x4.5 25 lbs.
2178-8148 18x10 +30 6 5/8 4x4.5 27.5 lbs.
2178-8165 18x10 +30 6 5/8 5x4.5 29 lbs.
2178-7948 17x9 +24 6 4x4.5 23 lbs.
2178-7965 17x9 +24 6 5x4.5 23 lbs.

Thanks for the help guys.

The only thing in that list that would fit the rear would be the 18x7.5. You'd have to use that same wheel on the front and then you'd want to use 215/245 front/rear at the widest. The you don't have staggered wheels, which isn't the best idea in the world.

Also when you pick the highest offset version of a wheel, it usually doesn't look like the picture. The dish usually goes away.
