18x8.5 +22! Anyone done it?



The fronts are 19x8.5 +22 on the Ings car. Anyone gone this aggressive with their offsets on this board?

What about 18x8.5 +30?

Any rubbing problems? How low is your car and most importantly, do you have pics?

any body know what the MAX we can push out from stock?

Lets just say wer are talking about stock wheels. 18x8 +50

How far can we push out the wheels? +40 (push out 10mm), +30(push out 20mm)?

whats the max we can come out without having to roll the fenders?

I have 19x8.5 and 19x9.5 +35 all the way around, no problems, rears come to the edge of the fenders though. Running stock suspension, may have problems going lower than 1", but thats not to say I'm not gonna try!!

edge of the fenders meaning right out to the very outside of the fender? so they sit flush with the fender walls?

it doesnt rub with the inner fender lining?

No rubbing now, and yes the rears are right out to the edge. Might be an issue with bigger drop but planning to do about 1" or so. If coilovers then shouldn't have a problem. Let me know if I can help anymore.
