I didn't want to bother you with old man glasses to go along with your old man shoes.

Offset is usually stamped on the wheel, it'll say something like "35mm" or "50mm"

If not, just call Tirerack they can look it up.

Not a bad brand at all. We fitted quite a few sets when I worked at the dealership with not complaints.
Like said, be sure that the offset is matched, or very close.

Yeah it looks like the +40mm offset is a very common size.

The lower the offset, the more the rims will stick out. If you want them to stick out a bit more, you could safely drop it to like 35-36mm.

I don't want them to stick out. The OEM look is fine with me. I looking for some used 18'' Inifiti rims now.

I just can't see how pitted/peeling paint would cause a noticeable air leak. How much pressure does it drop a week?

I've had that problem before. My old Probe had the factory chrome rims and at the ten year mark one of the rims would no longer seal. I had it fixed. At the the 13 year mark another rim started to leak.

It got to the point where I'd drop about 5psi a day
