I know fender rub is a constant battle when going for the "stanced" look, but how many of you guys experience rubbing issues between the tire and your fender liners when at full steering lock? I'm considering a set of 18x10 Work Meisters with a +5 offset and this is one of the things I'd like to figure out before I take the plunge.

I had 17x9.5 +35 wheels on the car at one point with a mild drop, rolled fenders, 245/40/17 tires, and -2 degrees of camber all around. Never had rubbing. I'm just curious if that extra 37mm out from the hub added to the steering arc will cause problems. |

It's a mix of having too tall f a tire and the inset of the wheel. It's not really liner (surprised you have them in). It's rubbing the metal fender tubs at full lock. When I was 17x9 +30 with 225/45 and went to 9 +11 with a 215/45. The slight height change and reduction in offset and inset allowed me my to rub the tub at full lock
It's all about playing around. I'm just to the top of the tire on 18x10.5 +22 with 245/35 and I don't rub anything inside with modified fender liners up top and nothing on the front side. Hopefully that helps. I was a little lazy to read everything above but I thought I'd share what I know of subject to help |

shut your mouth dude, you're such an expert on rotas I guess.. I know they're rotas I was wondering about tire size as well. And what if he does have spacers? obviously your expertise doesn't know that... lmao you're such a fool. smh at you.

^ these are my old wheels.. They are BBS RSGT reps..
These SPECIFIC wheels you will almost guaranteed never get your hands on.. There were 30 sets ever made, 15 sets in 18x8 and 15 sets in 18x9 all had +25 offsets.. They are FANTASTIC reps and still look awesome (even though I preferred them my way.. If you wanted reps there's a company called Avant Garde that makes similar reps, but they don't look like these at all in person.. If I could ever find another set I would buy with no hesitation as a backup set.. But I never will Back when I owned them |
