Jeff,
On most cars, the wheels are set toward the inside of the car,
meaning that if you have a 35mm offset, and you want to increase
the track by 7mm per side, you want a 28mm offset.
If you go to 3 piece modulars, it may be difficult to get the EXACT
1/4" increase you are looking for, and that is the maximum.
So be careful when you order if you want them to be legal.
I have been happy with Complete Custom Wheel if Florida
for custom 3 piece wheels at a good price. BBS, HRE, and Fikse
can do the same thing for more $$$. Depending on the car,
there may be 1 piece wheels that will do the same thing.
