Default 18 x 7.5 w/ 35 offset ok with stechs?

ok so i decided on what wheels and tires i want to get but im a little confused with the offsets.

Will I be ok with 18 x 7.5 w/ 35 offset with stechs running 225/40/18 tires?
Or should I go with 18x8's and/or go with 45 offset?

I am looking for more of the flush look rather than a tucked look and I want to make sure that I don't rub.

thanks in advance.

18x8 ET 35 may rub a bit with bumps. You may want to go with 18x7.5 ET 35. If you go with ET 45, you will get the tucked in look you don't want.

I'm looking at the same thing, I plan on going with 18x8 35 offset, im going to stick to 225 tires.

i have Eibach sportline springs, the front sits low maybe 2 1/2" drop, but the rear is maybe 1" lower than stock. I'm hoping il be fine.
