I picked up some 18x8 wheels ET35 and put them on over my 12mm spacers. I'm on stock suspension. It's about year old. I rubbed over nearly every bump. Tires are Federal 595 SS 225/40/18.

What the heck.

So, in short, yes, it will likely rub.

Do I roll my fenders? Deal with the occasional rub and hope I don't damage anything?

Thanks,

What are the offsets? That is your issue, and if you're rubbing on the fenders, remove your spacers. They are making it worse.

Seems like the obvious solution over rolling fenders...

take the wheel off and the offset should be stamped on the inside.

Rears need to be higher then 40 and fronts can be higher then 35. Lower you go more camber you may need.

I have 255 square on 8.5 and only rub on FULL compression before I rolled the fenders. But also on coilovers
