per "Question Eliminator 3000" offset 38mm to 48mm is ok ??

per jimlab spreadsheet a 50mm offset gives 0.21inch clearance outside and 0.29 inch inside

Take your picks

Fenders have slight roll to them (3/16" clearance at full travel), I have Tien Flex coilovers set at F 24 9/16" and R 25" ride height (fender to ground). I
don't have rubbing problems, unless I'm at full steering lock and hit a bump. The tires touch the plastic fender wells.

Edit: Sorry wrong adam. But for reference.

18X8.5 +40 Front and 18X9.5 +40 Rear
