245/40/18 on 18x8, what offset do i need?
Is it ok to run tires this wide. This is what my understanding is now:
-50mm offset wont clear the strut, obviously will clear the fender
-45mm offset and 225 or even 235 width tires usually clear both strut and fender
-35mm offset and 225 width tires requires rolling the fender, the strut would obviously be cleared.
so what I am thinking is that is the tire is 245 width, will it be ok at a 40 offset and with the fender rolled?
