yea I have 18 Konig Absolutes (+45 offset) with Nitto 555 225.40.18 tires, and the body kit. I was thinking about gettin the sports, but now that ur sayin that you rub like crazy with weight and you have a +42 offset, I'm thinkin its pretty close, so I might just get the H&R OE's too. Does anyone know if a +42 compared to a +45 makes a HUGE difference when it comes to rubbing? anyone got any suggestions on which ones I should go with? By the way, I like the rims.

Lookin good, I've got the same wheels paired with comptech springs, no rubbing issues at all unless I have 3 people in the backseat, which only happened once. One word of caution with those wheels, don't use any spray on wheel cleaners on them, I learned the hard way. I did one wheel, and the clearcoat on the polished lip came off and looked horrible, had to get a replacement wheel. I looked on the bright side, at least I have a full size spare now just in case, but it still wasn't fun

I've been reading on this board that you're safe with and above 50 offset.....ha, I didn't research this well enough when i bought my wheels that have a 40 offset (konig glides). i'm running 215-45 17's and was rubbing consistently on the back so a local body shop here rolled the fenders on the entire arch. it's looks great, you can't even tell anything has been done and no more rubbing!
