Fuel Wheel Markings
My new wheel and tire setup seems to have more tire poke than I expected. So I found markings on the back lip of the wheels and they have “ET 1” on them. Is it safe to assume that this means offset +1 ? What I had ordered was +20 offset. Looks like I’m paying a visit to Discount Tire tomorrow.

You are correct. ET 1 would indicated an offset of +1mm. +20mm should have the wheels either flush or slightly tucked in with the fender lips.

The new combo looks great, ColorBlind - thank you for your business!
You are correct, ET is the German abbreviation for offset so yes, your wheels do have +1mm offset. The ET+20 will sit about 3/4" further INWARD when compared to the ET+1 We apologize for the mix-up with that!

Its hard to fully tell from that angle but those look pretty damn good fitment wise and look wise. IMO you need a little poke to give it that aggressive look. Lets see some frontals

Discount Tire got my correct wheels mounted today. Here’s a pic showing the clearance to the front crash bars. +1 offset on left, rubbing looks inevitable if compressed while turning.
+20 on the right, won’t rub under any conditions.
