I have 18s with 225 18s and no rubbing
my car is lowered with progress springs
i've been hearing that 17s handle better than 18s...is this true or just personal preference? and will 225s rub on an 8g lowered or not? cause i think 225s would look best, but ill have to settle for 215s if 225s rub... :cry:
thanks man...im gonna go price some motegi dp5s gunmetal w/polish lip tomorrow...see if im gonna have to order them off the net or not
in reality, the smaller the wheel/tire combo, the easier it is to turn the wheel, making it seem like u have better handling, which is why its always better to get low pro tires no matter for the best handling, but we can't exactly roll around on 12's with 205/40/12 tires. 17s would probably be better than 18, but 18s have bigger tire patches so therefore = more grip = better over all handling. and they look better.

get 225/40zr18 on wheels that are 8.0" or less (7.5 is perfect) and as close to +46mm offset (stock) as possible. this will allow you to drop as low as 3"-4" w/ no rubbing problems.
