Will 18X8 38 Offset fit?(Pic!!!!)
Hey guys, I was looking at these Rims called NZO HALO. They look like Nates Rims sort of. Dose anybody know what these rims look like they are replicas of?

How bad. Is there anyway to prevent it? Should I not get the rims if they rub that much. I got Neuspeed springs and the fronts are cut. about 2 inches in the front and 1.75 drop in the back.

The wheels will stick out 1.42 inches from stock on the outside, and will probaly rub on the bumper tab and inside fender..
and with your cut springs, that would be even worse when turning.. and a load in the back..
You'll either have to roll your fenders or try and find a higher offset for them..
I think bigman recently got some wheels with +38 offset.. he rubs in the back.. I don't know if he is lowered though..

It's not just a question about rubbing either... it's also how the wheel will look on the car..
too low of an offset makes the wheel stick out like those Mexican Ghetto Cars(No offense to my Mexican brothdas out there) instead of being flush with the side of your car..
IMO, very ugly..

Take it from me you don't want to put those wheels on your car. I have tried every way possible to squeez a wheel that too big on my car and they either look like off road trucks or they rub so bad they can even move. But also those are the cheapest brand of wheel in the intire world, I know I have even checked them out, save some money and dont make your TL look trashy. Rory:yack:

Join the club. It took me over a year before buying wheels. Remember, if you're gonna invest in wheels, make sure you don't cut corners and make sacrafices. Get the right wheel with the proper fit...you'll be glad you did in the long run.

i dont think you want your rims to stick out that much man..it wont look good...
Your new wheel will have the following chracteristics:
The clearance from stut housing to the inside of the wheel will be 2mm LESS
The outside edge of the wheel will EXTEND an extra 36mm
:wow:
