ive been trying to figure wether 18's with a 42mm offset would rub or not. i assume not, but i was reading one of Wild Weasel's older posts, that say he recommended 35mm over 42mm, which i understand, but will the 42mm's have a chance of rubbing?
im about to purchase these rims today, and they have a 42mm offset, and i dont want any problems when i get them. any help is appreciated.

What's the width of the wheel? That's important when determining the offset.
Generally, you'll be fine with a 42 mm offset though.
oops, my bad, its 18x8

It's up to you to decide which you'd rather win.
so i could get away with not rolling the fenders with the 19x7.5?
