hey i have an 18X7.5 on my car. i think the offset is somewhere around there also but i cant remember exactly.. they fit for sure.. although on my rear passenger rubs when my car has people in the back. but i have heard others with the same rims and they have that problem with the same wheel also. these should be fine.

with a 215/35 tire its going to be close to rubbing. it'll probably only rub with passengers/luggage in the back over bumps though.

Well I didn't have those rims but I had some with the same measurements and you also have to look at the kind of tires because when I had the Hankooks they never rubbed but when I put on the BF goodrich they would rub occasionaly with 4 people in the car. Heres a picture below, by the way I am selling them.

what kind of springs are you using? I like that combo , it's just right with no gap...

Roll The Rear fenders.. The fronts will never give you a problem.

when you say roll the fender all i can think about is jessie james putting a baseball bat between the wheel and fender while the car was rolling so the tires wouldnt rub...im hopeing what ypur thinking is different
