offset for sedans Help needed fast tia.

would an offset of 45 on a set of 18 wheels look better on a sedan or would an offset of 35 on the same set of 18's with low profiles look better?

the link to the wheels is this:

I'm gonna have to go with the 35 offset! The closer to the fender, the better.

+45 would be safer. +35 will rub and you will have to roll your fenders.

Those wheels are 18x8. An 8" wide wheel would be perfect with a +35 offset front and rear. That's about the equivalent of +38 on a 8.5" wheel, and that is an optimal setup.

18x8 +35 w/ 235/45/18 is the ideal set up. Here is a pic of my winter set up with the coupe's wheels 18x8 +30 w/ 235/45/18 all around and no rubbing whatsoever.

Yep the +35 would be better.
The +45 would need a spacer to look right.
