anyone with 18" wheels?

Post by nope-mx3 »

I got a chance to get some 18s for my car.
4x100, ET40, 7x18, they should fit perfectly?

got 7.5x17, ET35 now, with some rubbing on the rear wheelarches.

I've got 18x7's on my car right now, the only reason 18x7s wouldn't fit is if you got the wrong bolt pattern or wrong offset, but 4x100 is the correct one (95% sure of that).I don't remember what offset to get... I'm also lowered on GCs. I do see a TINY bit of rubbing, but only if I've got the wheel cranked as far as it can go left or right and I'm taking the turn a little hard. The amount of rubbing that I see is not a problem. I don't ever get rubbing while driving normally. I have 215/35 tires, which might be something else to consider because if i had even a tiny bit more tire wall I'm sure my tires would get eaten by fender walls.
