RE: 24mm or 40mm offset?
I've got 20X9 Razors on my wife's GT. They are the 24mm offset and they fit great under the car. I've got 255/35R20General Tire Exclaim UHPs mounted on them (that's what Tire Rack recommended). Sorry I can't provide pics. I'm still new to this forum thing and learning how to upload my pictures.

Hmmm maybe its just me but see how the left rear wheel/tire sticks out farther from the wheel well. It just doesn't look right (kinda like the axles are walking out) to me or balanced where I think a 40mm would bring the wheel/tire in more under the wheel well, which would look better imo its just my opinion and what I would go with.

Might just be the angle of the pic or uneven pavement (he's half on the shoulder), but dropped Mustangs do get that cocked rear end look sometimes. Easily fixed with adjustable PH bar.

I WOULDNOT GET 24MM OFFSET wheels. My 24mm 18x10 rears stuckout nearly an inch beyond the fender. The shop I ordered my Torq Thrust M's accidentally ordered 24's instead of 40's and I was very upset. They took care of me though!

40mm will bring the tire in more, but then it brings the other tire in more too, so it doesn't mean it will look any more balanced.

Of course maybedepending on the wheel/make theywill look different but from that picture above of the CS6rear runningthat 24mm offset thatis the same look I had, now of course its just my opinion if you like that look (CS6)then there is no problem running that 24mm offset, I don't for my car. I would perfer a 40mm offset over a 24mm (bringing thewheel/tire moreunder the wheel well)or 45mm like the stock wheels areif it were possible.
The adjustable PH bar will not fix that look as its the 24mm offset of the each right and leftwheel.
Really guys I don't want to argue about this its just a prefence, if given the choice ofrunning a 24mm offset or a 40mm offset like the op postedI would go 40mm without a doubt imo.
This is my last post on this subject.

RE: 24mm or 40mm offset?
^^^ Thanks for those!!! Now at least I know what the different offsets look like! Either one of them looks great to me! I'm going to go with the 275 tires also. And I'm thinking maybe the 24mm might look better with the wider tires.So I'll probably just go with that. Thanks everyone for all your help!
