Anyone ever attempt to stuff them in? If so what size tire did you run, and did they rub?

I have 18X8 on mine tires are 235/40-18. Did not rub at all with stock springs. Switched to intrax and cutted off a coil from springs. Even then it would rub slighlty but i would have to hit a bump or pothole pretty hard.

Were those wheels on your car before the custom flares?

And did you cut your springs to be lower or did you have to for some crazy reason?

Thanks for the response.

Yes the wheels were on ther before the flares. Cut the spring to be lower since it looked really "jacked up".

my moca has 18 by 8 on it with cut springs and its slamed ,you cant even fit your finger between the finder and wheel and it does not rub .my black 91 has 17 by 8 on it ,that one i can not fit 18s on it due to lowering the strut in the strut nuckel

Do you guys know if a 18X8 wheel with 38mm offset will fit?

 

[K-Dawg]

Yes it should.

I had 18x8" American Racing Vortec rims with 235/40/18's on my black '89.

I believe the rim had 38mm offset. They fit great. I only had to roll the rear fender lip on one side. Other than that, they did not rub. Car was stock height, though.

Give me a few minutes, and I'll upload a pic.

I think mine were a 40mm off set and I have a small spacer on the back and rolled the lip on the rear openings see sig for more.
