I'm thinking of getting OZ Racing Superleggera 18x8 wheels w/Yokohama AVS db 225/40-18 tires. I am running stock suspension, no upgrades. Will these rub?

Comments suggestions welcome.

Thanks.

 

topgum might have that same exact setup (he has those wheels for sure) on a tl-s. the offset might be +45mm so it could rub. if no one comes up with anything, you might want to try finding his posts.

 

Nice wheel choice Stock suspension with 225's should be no problem. MAYBE just trimming the tab. I'm running 235's now with a drop and it was an easy fix. You'll be fine. BTW Stan, your TL is looking sweet!

 

i had those wheels before but in 18x7 with 45 offset and the same size tires. they are very light and looks nice. i never had rubbing issues either. if your going to get the db's, you should consider the db 2's, it's a newer version of the db tire but i've heard it will perform a little better.

 

put 235-40-18.

 

you are stock. dont worry about rubbing

 

I have my whip slammed with H&R sports...and KYB Gr2 shocks...with 18x8 OZ superleggeras..no rub...nice ride...Im selling my rims if you areinterested...going for chromies... =)

 

you ran a 215 on 8 inch rims?

 

yup, suspect everything and don't make a choice until you know the specs for the rims and tires.

 

yeah.....so....they were sticky as hell...bridgestone potenzas

 

you bronx, would you be willing to sell just the rims? and, if so, what's your asking price shipped to 91770? also need to know the condition. thanks.

 

well...in all honesty...at the current time one of my rims is bent...(it happened last night)...just my luck...as soon as I post them for sale on the message board...however I am planning to get it fixed.the rest of the rims are in excellent condition. There is a guy on long island that runs a metal works place...amazing amazing work....my friend had a seriously messed up rim and they fixed it MINT!.
Now...I would be willing to sell as is for a price if you would want to get it fixed yourself.

 

The package are really brand new.....I bought them last august.,..ran them for about a month, swapped them out for the winter..then put them back on in May of this year. I now take the train to work everyday and rarely use my car. Just so happens in the shlock weather last night ==....I hit a pot hole on the lovely cross bronx expwy at 65 mph
