Will 18x8 with 35 offset rub?

is 35 offset too low for an 8" wide wheel for the TSX? I'd lower it about 1.3"

that'll be really flush with the fenders, it shouldn't rub as long as you don't slam your car

Yes it will rub.

I had an 18x8 with +40 offset and it rubbed all of the time when I took a tight turn or if people were in my car. It won't take much to make it rub. Try to stay +42 and up.

btw, I was not dropped at all.

Just think about it. When was the last time you guys actually experienced a wheel rubbing against the fender? I've only seen tires with rubbing issues.
