I think I'm going to install 16x8 inch rims, once I find something I like.
Whats offset would I be looking for with this set up. Looking to be flush with the fenders. Thanks DEF -------------------- ![]() I will return one day. |

I have 18x8 46+ offset w/ 225/40r18 and have no problem what so ever. My car is lowered around 3.5inches too. I have stock guards and you can't see any gap between the tyre and guard from side on, but they never hit the guards, as your suspension compresses it developes more camber which lets the wheels clear the guards.
If a wheel doesn't hit the strut when straight and stationary it can never hit the strut as the distance is fixed between the two. They're directly bolted together by the hub. What you have to worry about is the guard clearance with wheels that have +ve offset higher than 48. I'm planning to go a 235/40 on the rear to give it a tougher look soon. |
