There's quite a few Niche wheels that have a nice look, not sure if you've seen them all~these are the sport series (the lowest priced line) and they have many more as well in the higher $$$.

Vic, is your Journey a Sedan or Coupe? Let me know and I can help w/ offsets if you want.

Blnewt , yes I have seen those, thank you for sharing them I actually wanted the Lucerne ,but the silver where out of stock and they ordered one gun metal color just to see how it looks on my car , since my car is dark grey.

Mine is a coupe. Thank you for your help.

This link shows the difference in concave between a 8.5 & 10.5" wheel in the "angle 4" photo
http://www.nicheroadwheels.com/apex-m125--w-8791.htm
The 8.5" +25 on 245/35/20 and the 10.5" +30 on 285/35/20 should be good.

Check out angle 3 in this link, it shows the difference in concavity between the 9 & 10" wheel widths, and yes they're concave, not deep concave but pretty good, at least in the 10" width.
Lucerne - M141 - Niche Wheels
FWIW almost all of the Niche wheels are concave, just need to click on each wheel and check all the angle pics to see the differences, that's one thing that Niche does really well on their website, it really does show how deep the concavity really is.

I start liking the Niche Apex!!

BTW, what do you guys think about the Apex and the Verona? I'm trying to decide between these 2 (Pictures attached).

Hey Brad! I have a moonlight white RWD Journey and am planning to drop it with Swift springs. With staggered setup, what are the best sizes and offsets for each of the wheels I mentioned above? And which one do you think looks better? Thanks!

P/S: the car in the pictures has the sport bumper. My car doesn't!

Between those two choices, I go with the apex. I'm planning on purchasing a set of niche wheels, but not sure which to one go with it yet.

What color did you end up going with on your coupe? I've got graphite shadow also and I'm looking for some feedback on what color would look best.
