well...+45 is stock and i have +39 with a 5mm spacer so its technically +34 in the front which sticks out a little and +23 is going to stick out A LOT. unless you're going to go wide body...the RT is going to limit your size options. These are really made for a wide body application according to Rays. if you REALLY want staggered i think the only option i had for a smaller rim was the 17 inch RT in the front because these come with a less aggressive offset.. You would just need a taller tire to offset the height of the rear like 35 in the rear and 45 in the front. 


no matter how you look at it, unless you go with the 17inch ones, you are looking at fender work with the RTs. my setup in the RT lineup will require the least fender work. i've already had to shave the rears a bit and ill be rolling the fronts very very soon. you'll have to stretch the front tires for clearance. and the biggest size to be safe in the rear is 255 tire wise. and dont even think about slamming it...you wont be able to. in fact, i have to raise it before i track/canyon the car again. so these are the caveats to have these beautiful wheels on the 3IS. if youre ok with all of this then go for it. otherwise stick with the regular TE37s which offer more sizes... =)
