Pettit Flares, 18x12s, and 335s

I was wondering if anyone could check something for me if they have pettit flares, 18x12s with an 18mm offset and 335/30/18s. I was wondering were the lip of your tire is compared to the egde of the flare. On the passenger side mine comes past the flare by about .5 inches and the of the driver side the camber is off so it is hard to tell if it will do the same. I really dont know how far it is supposed to come out and hard to tell from pics cause i dont know the offset of the rims they are running.

thanks

gonna be tight fitment on 18s....I have 335/35/17's with pettit flares.... I havnt mounted anything, my offset is whack because the rims came off a supra. I am using hubcentric wheel spacers to make it work... Might still have to play with them to make for the perfect fit. Pretty much everyone w/ larger wheels & fat tires have had to fine tune them...

I have 18x11.5 +0 offset SSR Sp1's that I test fitted before the car went under the knife. I have roughly 4.75-5inches of lip and the lip lines up exact with the fender. Looks perfect. I was going to go with 18x12 but I was told this setup would allow me to run 335's and fit perfectly.
