For a tC on Tein H-techs

What wheel offset and tire size will I need to run if I am picking up 18x8 wheels to get as close to flush as possible to the fenders without rubbing?

+35mm has seem to be the norm if you are running 8 or 8.5 in width.

I'm running 19x8's with 40 offset and 35 tires and have VERY RARE rubbing problems... only when loaded and fast big bumps.

et35 on an 8 inch wheel is good. that would make the wheel stick out 22mm from stock. for the front thats about perfect. the rear can use a 5mm spacer. you'll need to roll the rear quarter panel lips if you run that spacer. the width of your tire also matters. a 215 tire would be a conservative size.
