Default Anyone running 18 x 7.5 +35 offset w/TRD springs?

i want to know if there will be any rubbing issues. I don't think there will be rubbing issues but i want to be sure.
I need someone who is running these exact wheel specs and has the TRD springs.
Any help would be greatly appreciated , thanks..........

wheel specs are 18x7.5 with a +35 offset and tire size is 225/40/18

tahoe have those 18x8's killed your MPG or what? r they light? I'd like to go for the 18D and that extra wide 8in myself when i'm ready to plunk down that cash, i'd just hate to forever kill my mileage.

Though i may go for scionstyles setup just to be safe.

I just realized that my front wheels are almost flush with the fender. I want to go lower than trd springs but i think i will have alot of rubbing issues. Any input on this guyz.... Or will the wheels tilt in a little bit when i lower it, therefore it might not rub, i really dont kno....

you will get a bit of negative camber if you lower it a couple inches i loaded mine down to check gaps and things and how low i could go and i ended having rubbing at about 2.5 inches drop but it wasnt on the fender it seemed to be that stupid wheel liner

if you go more than trd's what suspension were you looking at coil-overs ?
if so you should be a ble to put neg camber where you need it in the fronts

i think im gonna get the df210's. The reviews are pretty good. I don't wanna run that much negative camber. My tires are expensive so i want them to wear evenly and have a long tread life. Hope fully i will have no issues with rubbing because of the 35 offset of my wheels lol

Good to hear and looking at the measurements you wont have any rubbing if anything with the 35 offset and a .5 less width in the rim youll be sitting right about where im at and do not have any issues youll like the df210's they are a good spring

If you're actually going to get the DFs I say get your alignment done right after installing them to insure your tires aren't worn unevenly.
