Re: 18x8 wheel question

It will be no problem, it will just be a little more tucked in. You probably won't even notice it...

Re: 18x8 wheel question

I'm trying to get a set of 18x8 rims with 35offset.
Should I get a 18x9 on the rear or it's ok to get just little wider tires for the rears like Stock rims.?

Re: 18x8 wheel question

Your answer to the first question is correct. The higher the offset, the more the rin is positioned inside the wheelwell.

Now the size of the rim part, are these rims for winter use (snow ect..)? If so then you usually want a smaller width like 7or 8".

But if these rims are for normal street use, then I would go with 8 to 10.5". On normal use i say wider is better, goes with wider tires also like 275s.

Re: 18x8 wheel question

all 18x8, it's just the tires on them that are wider in the rear.
