Bad picture but gives you an idea. These TE-37's Limiteds are 18X9 40 offset - no rubbing and fit great with 245x35 18's

I'll find out.

It is tough to trust some of the random vendors out there on what they say.

that would be cool if you could... I've always wanted to know ... I just wish syms would make a wider rear fender too so the car would look ultra sick....

btw... how would this negatively affect my scrub radius clap? whta kinda performance issues would i have compared to before?

go get an alignment with those wheels and see if they can calculate scrub radius.

it'd be nice to know how much it actually changed.

what is your suspension again?
