i got my hood tilted....my car runs so much cooler.Besides, it' the only way my turbo is going to fit under my hood. because it is top mounted and plus since my manifold fits t25 and the turbo is a t3/t4. i had to buy an adapter to fit it.
then i would go 45 offset but change your tires to 225 instead of 235. but if you consider lowering your car, i would go with 18's altogether. besdies, it's cheaper to find tires for 18's instead of 19's.
