Tire/Wheel Fitment
Will I run into any rubbing issues with the following set up?
18x8 / 46 offset with 225/40/18 tire
18x9 / 44 offset with 265/35/18 tire
I've checked this setup with the JimLab tire and wheel sizing spreadsheet and got the following results:
front outer clearance = 0.81"
front inner clearance = 1.19"
rear outer clearance = 0.48"
rear inner clearnce = 0.52"
Is the spreadsheet fairly accurate? Any other recommendations for tire size? Can I go wider on the front? like, 245/35/18 perhaps and still avoid rubbing issues? I'm also running on coilovers which i believe is actually smaller than the stock springs and shock assembly. So, I think I should be good as far as inner clearance goes. Any thoughts?
Thanks for any input.

thanks for the input rynberg! actually, I already bought the rims 18x8 and 18x9, front and rear. So, I guess I'll just have to go with 235 front and 265 rear as you have suggested. Thanks.
