A lower offset will cause the wheels to stick out more and be more flush with the fender. Most people try to achieve less vertical space between wheel well and tires, and less horizontal space between fender and wheel. If you pay attention at expensive cars that look "nice," they've usually paid a great deal of attention to optimizing both these points. However, you can only go so far until your tires start rubbing on either the wheel wheel lining or fender.

It's all good up to a point, but personally I can't stand the ridiculous "hella flush" look that some people go for where they combine low offset wheels/spacers, drops, and simply stupid amounts of camber to create a car that looks like it came out of a cartoon.
