I have the exact specs with Asanti Wheels. I would try to test fit with a local dealer. Then order from other place.

Go to a rim shop and they should have a tester rim that you can fit to see first.

It's not about the backspacing. It's about the clearance between the spokes and the front brakes. I agree you need to test fit. I ordered a different wheel than what I have now, EXACT same specs, however, the spokes hit my calipers so I would have had to run a spacer.

Hi Guys, I know that front barkes on our car are big. My question is what is the widest 18" wheel/tire (eg 265/40/18 on 8.5" or 9" rim) you can put without rubbing or rolling fenders?
Thanks

We can't give you an answer without knowing the offset as well.
