will i rub?
 
my cousin is giving me some rims/tires 18x9 in the front and 18x9.5 in the rear +40 all around with 225/40/18. i'm lowered on some nf210, will it rub?

You will defnitely need to roll your fenders, possibly stretch a little. Definite answer when Cionide checks in.

225/40 should be enough tire stretch, but I'm guessing that Greg is right about needing to roll the fenders, especially up front.

Guessing? The wheel and tire god is guessing?

First the zodiac signs are all screwed up and now CIONIDE is guessing. :rofl:

Very funny pyroman, you got me. :roll:

If the wheels were 8" wide, then I know there would be no rubbing, but when the width is pushed up that high, I'm just not sure if springs as soft as the NF's would keep the fenders off the sidewalls on good size bumps or dips, especially when loaded with passengers or cargo. Aggressive wheel widths and/or offsets can push the fitment envelope when it comes to rubbing.
