235 tire on 18 by 8 with 45mm offset

[kdrkmstp]

Would 235 tire on a 18x8 with +45 offset not rub in the front wheels???
I heard that in some cases, the control arm would rub the tire or something like that.
Let me know if anybody is running that size tires on 45 offset.
thanks

I'm not sure about the front, but they are almost sure to hit the vertical link (aka spindle, aka knuckle) in the rear. Back it off to a +40 offset and you'll be fine.

Well, I only have 2 of these, and wasn't gonna put them on the back.
And I was gonna put them on the front because the front ones are worn out unevenly...If I make it 40mm, I think it would stick out too far.
I hope it fits cause I got two of those for free .Well, let me know
if anybody knows for sure.

If they rub on the inside,, you can always run a thin spacer.

I guess so, but how much are the spacers and where should I get it from.
