    45mm offset would be perfect. If the rims were 7.5" wide I'd say they would fit without a doubt. At 8" wide, they should still fit, but you could possibly have problems with rubbing in the rear if you go too low.

    the thing is, when you're going with width, the outside of the wheel and the fender isn't as much as an issue as the inside of the wheel and rubbing against the suspension components.

    i got 8.5 in wide. only rubbing is on the outside when i hit dips going 75+ that would pretty much happen to any car, unless they had rock solid suspension. basically bottoming out.

    not necessarily. if you got some of those adjustable struts you could se tthem on the stiffest setting when you gonna be travelling on the highway so no bottoming out. Guy in AZ only has 16s and when we meet up hes riding kinda soft because were in the city, but when we start to cruise, or take the highway, he'll just pop the hood right quick and change the settings to stiffer. takes about 1 minute.

    the 2 other things are to make sure you get the right offset. close to stock as possible. but i know you already know that.

    and you dont HAVE to get 8.5 wide. you can get anywhere from 7.5-8.5 with 19s now, I believe. When I got mine, I didnt know that. Plus there were very limited styles that were only 7.5 wide. but I like mine just fine. and there is always the option to roll your fender just to make sure.

    so its really up to you.

    I'm on 18's at 8.5 in. wide and have the GC coilovers. As long as you keep the offset as close to stock as possible, you will have no problem. You WILL definitely need a fender roller for the rear, because my rears rub over small bumps and the like. But like I said offset is the key. not the width.
