These are a 38 offset, if i roll the fender will they still fit without rubbing. Im running 225/40.18 on them. Please let me know asap. They are poking out a lil past the fender. What is this lil black plastic thing everyone is talking about. Post any pics of it if you have any.

A +42 is about the lowest you should go without rolling fenders. You may be able to roll them enough, I don't know. The plastic tab is located in the rear fender wells and is a part of the rear bumper cover. Feel under the fender for it. Just take a small saw and cut it off.

Good luck!

Those rims are pretty nice. Offset is really too low though.

Offset is to low. Only a matter of time till you hit a pothole or bump and :wow:

bigman

whats the worse you think will happen if i hit a pothole. or catch a nasty bump. You think i should do 215/40/18 rather than the 225/40/18 i have now.

BTW im only rubbing slightly in the back, not the front.

Nate

Turn the wheel all the way each direction and check the front to see how closer you are. Think about hitting a bump with your wheels cramped like that.

I can't imagine what would happen it you hit abump... could bend fenders and would be a total disaster! :wow: Careful man!

You find that plastic tab?

jkc2121

you have no plans of lowering it right? cause i dont think your fenders would appreciate that.

Yo bigman...

The ride is coming together nicely since the last time I saw it at the Westchester meet. Those rims definitely make it like sportier. I hope you find a combination that works out for you, but I would have to agree that +38 sounds too low. I just saw the other threads you posted about rims that you were considering and these look sooo much better. Good luck

The front turns real well and it doesnt rub at all. Its just the back, so what do you guys think if just the back rubs.
