What are "normal" wheels?
I agree, you'd pay an arm and a leg for staggered wheels in custom offsets like that. The spacers make the car look good, just take a shot with the front wheels straight so you can tell that both front and rear sit flush with the fenders.
BTW, thanks for posting about these and providing a link I'll be getting some 28mm spacers from them for my stock wheels for winter, that way they sit flush with the fenders like my new ones do.

I guess you could say normal means cheaper, instock wheels. Some places don't stock the weird offset ones, but will order them. There are wheels out there that cost more per rim than all my rims and tires together, so yeah I have normal aftermarket rims.

Its the air dam. His stock plastic one broke and his front end was too high without it.
