18x9.5 20offset.

I was just wondering if anyone has run these rims before? Planning on it, but Idk if there is any issues with rubbing. Any feedback would be great!

You will rub fenders for sure. I rub with 18x9.5 +35 in the rear. Fronts are rolled/pulled some and rears are rolled

You'll rub, and no way around it. Just too big. I went down to 7.5 and those sit real close.

If you really want to make them fit here is the way around it.

Put some 225/35 tires on them and around -4 camber and slam it, it would be hellaflush !!! that's the only way around it which is not for us but each their own.

it will look like this and get some stiff suspension.

If you really want your car look like this ill help you out on what you need but i do not recommend this.
There are some cons like premature wheel bearing failure and stuff like that to keep in mind.

225s on a 9.5-wide wheel is one of those moronic fads that can't end soon enough. Makes me nostalgic for the days of fuzzy dice or pine-tree-shaped air-fresheners. At least those didn't lower performance.

I had to roll my rear fenders running 18x8 +37 with 245/40 tires. No way these are gonna work. I also couldn't agree more on the tire stretching issue.

It is what it is, maybe he dont want performance out of his car.
For alot of people it is dumb but for others it is not. im not gonna start hating becuase I dont like streching tires, This is like building a drag only car sacrificing the handling. Here it is sacrificing the performance for an specific look. end of story.

You´ll rub fenders. A friend has 18x8 +35 and he had to roll rear fenders to fit them. Anyway, I like that look. Good luck!

ull need rool n a lil pull i got18x8 +17 on back and i pulled/rolld the back and i barely rub so im going to a 9 inch wheel to stretch my 235s just enough to clear and still not lock too flush.

Thanks alot guys, yeah I know I'm sacrificing performance and handling with going wide and stretched tires. Going for the the hella flush look and becoming my cruiser. My drag days are over, wife wont let me take it down the strip like I used to... Maybe settle for 17x9 with a +20 offset now. I love how 18s sit in there but like you guys said, gotta roll fenders and camber adjustment. Any ideas on how far I can go before I have to do any major cosmetic mods to fit rims and still look flush?

What about the added weight of the fuzzy dice and air fresheners?
