how about including both pics and saying something like:

The photos on the right show his 8.5" wide BBS LMs with ET20 in front and ET17 in the rear. Since then, additional data collecting has shown ET22 front, ET16 rear to be a "safe" FLUSH setup, with few rubbing problems even on aggressively lowered cars.
<p>
This setup will be considered FLUSH to fenders and will be used as a baseline for all calculations below. The stock 7.5" wheel with ET32 is also given as a comparision.
