im lookin at Staggered rims, b/c i love the look. Just wondering
18x8.5 in the front
18x9.5 in the rear.

Will they fit? if so -rubbing issues?

 

depends on the offsets and your drop. but most likely yes

 

offset = +35mm

 

no drop

 

that'll be pushing it but with no drop its going to look funny

 

ahhhh, its hard to drop in ny. there are ditches everywhere lol. Ditches and potholes. Gotta love em

 

if there are ditches and potholes DON'T go anything much above stock. you'll ruin your rims so fast.

 

I've had 18x8.5 and 18x9.5 rims if you stay stock u won't rub, but if u drop it u will need to roll your rear fenders so they don't rub. but like nebster said it'll look funny. especially in nyc, i wouldn't recommed doing that if the roads are bad your car will definitely ride funny, mine pulls like crazy right now and I made the width smaller.
