My 18x8.5 wheels with +48mm offset and 245/35R18 tires caused some fender rubbing in the rear. Rolling the fenders took care of it. No problem that I can tell from the front (although the fronts are...

My 18x8.5s seem fine; I haven't noticed any vibration. I torqued them to 85ft-lbs like Th3Franz.

To update, I rolled the rear fenders and the rubbing is almost entirely gone now (I *think* I still hear something on the worst dips but even that I'm not sure about).

Stock tires are 215/45R17. Moving to 225/45R17 will give you 832.9 revolutions per mile as opposed to the stock 845.1 revolutions per mile, resulting in the speedometer reading 1.5% slower. That...

Hmm, and with a +44 offset his wheels should be sticking out .16" further than mine. Maybe the sectional width difference is just enough to prevent it from rubbing? Or he's got more negative camber,...

Well I think taking off the rubber strips helped a little bit, but it still rubs (although it makes a different sound rubbing against the metal instead of against the rubber).

I'll give it a shot. If that doesn't work, I guess the next step is rolling the fenders - that might help with the rears because they don't stick out as much as the fronts.

Yep, the spokes on the G-forces definitely extend outward from the rim, but that shouldn't really be a problem (apart from being easier to damage on curbs I guess). The issue is that with the wheel...

What I don't understand is that this protrusion seems like more than it should be because of the size difference. If I'm not mistaken, the stock wheels are 17x7 +55. That should protrude 53.9mm...
