just got my wheels from wheelmax.com....when i ordered them i asked would they fit with out any problems and they said yes...........yeah right.....the wheels are 18 x 7.5
tires are 215/35/18 nankang offset is ? when i looked at the invoice all it says is high offset....im calling them tomorrow and ask what happened.... the wheels are rubbing dramatically against the front brake caliper ....anyone ever have this happen ? wheels look good on xb but cant drive it

trying to find out has anyone had this type of rubbing problem.

 

Sounds like a bad offset.

Return them post-haste at WheelMax's expense, since it's their fault you got the wrong wheel offset.

dont go over 42...or 40 to be safe...
otherwise u will rub like crazy..

try to return them, otherwise only thing to do is spacer

 

If you don't mind which wheel did you get?

Never trust any one....
when i ordered my rims/tires from this company in Cali.....
I got wrong width/ wrong size tire/ and they even sended my rims with GLUED cheap style spacers.( i ordered +40 offset, they sent me with +45 offset along with GLUED 5mm pep-boy style spacers) in order to meet the offset that i ordered....They didn't know that i was going to get H&R spacers but still is totally crap to ship a rims with GLUED spacers....

 

i got the wheels made by limited model 344

 

ALL excel wheels from wheelmax.com are 45mm offset.....

 

just grab a set of 5mm spacers and problem solved.

 

Wheelmax sucks anyway, never buy from them.

 

agree

 

update............ji spoke with wheel max customer service and they gave me no answers
i told them i ordered the wheels and before ordering the wheels i specifically asked the sales agent will these wheels fit with out any problems and or rubbing...........y
when i got the wheels they did not fit correctly on the front rub very bad against brake caliper so i assumed this a wheel spacer issue...........so i called them and told them the deal and i made clear that i dont want to use wheel spacers ....and they told me that they have to review the tapes of the recorded conversation between me and the sales agent......so im giving them until 10 am tomorrow and then im calling the credit card company to initiate a dispute...............bad experience with online ordering wont do again.... : so if you guys have anty suggestions on to deal with this let me know....thanks

 

that sux wheelmax sux bawls!!

make them take back the wheels and refund you


good luck to ya
