going to need really high offset to run 9.5".. if someone is running 9" with +36 offset and needed to roll fenders to fit, id imagine you need at least +45 or so offset or there abouts to fit..

I'd like to know that as well, because that is the size I plan to be running. 235 is the right fit, but I believe you could go 245 or 225 on those rims. Either way, I am still concerned about rubbing with the drop.

found this from another thread.. this is 18x8.5 +45 running 235 with a drop.. and rears look pretty sunken in.. your running +48 so will look little more sunken in than this.. but if you're worried about scrubbing when lowered then run 225's but 235's should be fine...

Ah, yeah, that looked good. Hmm, 245s, even with +48, would probably require fender rolling though.

forgive my dumbness, but why do the backs look sunken in like that?? If the offset is same front and back, wouldn't they be flush with each other like the stock wheels??

It looks like the fronts are sunken in too; it's just harder to tell from that angle.

these will fit like a charm with those tires.... but the rubber is a bit small... i would go 225 or 235 and roll the rear fenders!!!!
