I think my fronts sit in too much (not flush with fender), so your 57 offset will probably look a lot better.

Welcome to the 6.
Are you sure your fronts have an offset of 46mm? A 57mm offset would actually put the wheel farther in compared to 46mm.

thanks alot again! I went through with the wheels and they should be on their way tomorrow...ish.

Heres a pic of the wheels i ordered, but mine will be flat black.




Mine should look sexier though. after the wheels are on, i hope to do an eibach/bilstein sport shock set up, and thats it!

SKE,

I am far from an expert and new to the forum as well but I have been told by several wheel retailers that a 295 is the wrong size tire for a C4 and that you will burn up the front differential. A 315 is supposed to be the correct size for the rear of a four wheel drive 996. Check around some more.
