    new rims

    Ok, I just got some new 18" rims for my car. I am just wondering how low I can go with out rubbing.. . I am not sure what the offset is though. i just got them from a friend. all i remember was the size is 215/35 yokohama paradas or something. I can take a picture of them tomorrow if you need to see them. I have the Sprint 2.25 lowering springs on The Gun metal car right now. but I am thinking of having her for autocross, so possibly buying a 1.5 spring and swapping the 2.25 to the other car with 18's. would this be too low?

    the rims are exactly like Justin86lx's but an inch bigger...;-)

    If those 18s aren't 45 mm offset you're likely to have trouble at stock height.

    well here is the car and rims.





    I dont know what the offset is but the Rims are ADR racing if that helps you any. I have a problem rubbing except the back driver side strut is blown and when i corner hard to the right it rubs, but i havent rolled the fenders yet either. the other 3 dont rub at stock height. anybody know what the offset on these are ?
