Just got new rims and tires

I just got the Tenzo R RS-5 rims in 18x7.5. I am using the new Falken FK-451 tires in 215 40 ZR18 and I must say that they are awesome. Traction in the dry and the wet is MUCH better than stock. Launching traction was also imporved upon.

What's the offset on the Tenzo rims, any problems rubbing?

Pics will be coming very shortly. The offset is I believe +42 on the 18x7.5" rim and my TL is lowered about 1.5"/2" on ground control coil-overs. I am having no rubbing prob.'s what so ever.

Here's a link to a pic of my wheels, except mine are in gunmetal with a polished lip. http://www.wheelmax.com/Wheels/Tenzo/rs5.gif
