I'm pretty new to this so don't kill me for asking this question. Thanks

I plan on running wheels with a Zero offset in the front of my car with 18x9.5 inch wheels wrapped in 255/40 tires. Will I rub with this low offset? And if so what do I need to do to prevent from rubbing?

 

Use a offset calculator to compare your current wheels to the new wheels. With the new dimensions, check the car with a tape. Do you clear the suspension, brakes calipers and fenders? Reference: http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp

 

you will not rub, it will be much worse than that.

the obvious solution would be to not put those poor fitting wheels on in the first place. the ricer solution would be to keep adding negative camber until it clears--which it most likely won't. then you will have to put on a really narrow tire to get it to not rub.

 

That'll fit with room to spare.... put it on and drive it around and post pics after

 

Close to -3 camber and it will work

 

If I where a mod!

This **** would be locked so fast you wouldnt be able to slide in. The Op would be pm with links to where info could be found
I'd give out a months premier if you could slide in before the lock

 

Ok so it will or will not fit ?

 

No rub no love. Don't be a b*tch!

 

you'll be fine, i have 0 up front and low with no problems

 

Pics?

 

Are you lowered?

 

It will fit,I run 245 45 18 though.Also I got front camber arms so no rub at all

 

0 offset in front and rear. I'm running a stretch though 225/35 up front. my front wheels are 9inches wide to your 8.5 just to give you a idea. no rubbing issues but i did have to get the rears rolled they rubbed alot.

 

Wheels question in the brakes & suspension forum!!!


IBTM.

 

do you even know what wheel offset is? if you did then you could answer your own question. best way to not rub? get proper fitting wheels for your car

 

you can make it fit.
