Will 18x8 wheels rub?
#1
![Question](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/icons/icon5.gif)
I want these OZ wheels, but for some reason, tirerack.com doesn't show that they are compatible with the TLS.
Does anyone have 18x8 on their TLS now?
What does everyone think of these wheels?

You need to figure out the following:
1) Are you gonna drop your car?
2) What springs? Comptech, H&R, Eibach
3) What's the offset on the rims?
I am running 18x8 +50 offset with 225/40 18s and I have absolutely no rubbing.
My thought is that the OZs you're looking at will not have the right offset. They are one-piece wheels and typicallly don't have the high offset needed. And OZ wheels are heavy.
I looked at the OZ Nova Modulars but they only come in +42 and weigh a ton. Stylin Silver Sled has them. His pics are in the gallery.
