A doublecheck before buying....
Hey guys,
I'm ready to purchase an 18 x 7.5 rim with either 35 or 42 offset, riding on a 225/40/18 tire. I'm going to keep the stock springs for now, but I'd like to add the TRD or Eibach springs in the future when my stereo is done. Any suggestions on which offset I should try to get? As far as I've been told, 225/40/18 won't rub the plastic fender liner at stock suspension height or with either spring setup, only with 2" or lower.
Any suggestions will be appreciated, thanks in advance!!
Mike

Get the +35 offset--it will sit much nicer on your ride, you will like the look more, and you won't have that sunken in rear wheel look that most higher offset wheels give you.
Go 35, you won't regret it!
