What issues should I expect with 18x8.5 +33 w/ 225/40 tires?
 
I'm looking at these https://images.craigslist.org/00K0K_...zr_600x450.jpg and was wondering what fitment issues I should be expecting if I lower 1.5 inches. Thanks!

Nice wheels!




To be 100% sure, we need more info. How are you lowering 1.5 inches? Lowering adds poke. Camber will tuck the top of the tire, providing you have a way to add camber.


Compared to the stock wheel, this new wheel will be 4.1mm closer to the suspension strut and poke out 34.1mm more than stock.

I ran 18x8.5" +33 Advan RG-D with 225 tires all around for a few months, you will have no issues whatsoever.

Were you lowered at all? If so, how much?
