is there any way that a normal 17x7 wheel will look flush with the body of the car? is there an offset that would do the trick, or do we need the right offset and wheel width ?

so now that we got the size figured out. whats the cheapest place to get some nice 17x8s 35offset wheels. im looking to spend under 1,000 with tires...but so far that seems to be an impossible price for 8in wide wheels.
