Ok, my brain's mush today, and I'm trying to think of what these would look like;

16x7et40 4x100 front and the 17x7.5 et45 4x100 rear

Basically, I wanted the +35 rear but not sure I could get them, so it may have to be +45....now, with the rear being wider, but also with the +45 offset, would the lip be bigger/same/smaller than the thinner, but better offset 16" front wheels....?

I'd guess about the same, trouble is offset only tells you where teh hub is relative to the wheel, teh dish will depend on wheel and spoke design and how thick the hub of the wheel is

Yeh that's true....they're rota grids, and I dont think i've ever seen a set with anything that even vaguelly resembles a dish, but they do have a nice shiny lip, which is good I guess.

Wel rota grids it is then  s:) :) s:)
