I was just wondering if anyone knows what offset would be really close to rubbing the fenders but yet doesn't hit. I was thinking of 18x8.5 fronts and 18x9.5 rears. I don't want the hassle of having to roll my fenders and yet I want that ever so close look... While your at it, if you have a pic of sweet looking wheels on a MB FD post it ( some inspiration for me to go buy some!) Thanks

 

Borderline front fender lip (read probably will rub with the right circumstances, and too tall a tire choice):

30 mm, 8.5 wide

35 mm offset, 9 wide

38 mm offset, 9.5 wide

 

What about the rear fenders? Why does the amount of offset change with rim width.... I didn't think it would matter about the width because it measures from the mounting flange to the outer lip of the wheel ..... oh is it because of the tire turning on the front? Thanks for the 411
