Problem with a 40mm offset is that one company's 40mm offset can be 38mm (which would rub) or it could be 42mm offset and it will not rub.

It all depends on the Quality Control of the company. I say give it a try.

You'll save money online, but you best make sure you are getting a quality product, from a place that has been around before you commit.

I had my rims imported and bought online, by place that has an ok reputation, but, even then the manufacturor offered me personal support as well.

That is what you need to determine, do you have contacts by both the retailer and the manufacturor?

I like to help out the local shops. But if I find a good deal I usually order online.

I don't mind paying an extra 10% for a local shop cause in the return he will give you better customer service (hopefully).
