need help with rim size - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

I'm getting rims that are 18 x 9.5. What is a better offset 32 or 44. I don't want the wheels to stick outside the fender.

I would go for 44 definitely. From experience with stock suspension and camber you will have a slight poke outside fender.

Stock type suspension or coilovers? I would stay away from the +32 if you don't like the fender poke. Just be careful with +44 as it may rub on the inside (assuming still stock type setup) and depending on tire size. Are those the only offsets available in the rim you want?

+44 cause concave is legit.

Even with 44 still going to poke

Buy my rims!!!! lol. In all seriousness though it all depends on what type of suspension you have. If you're stock, +44 is going to be super close to hitting. +40 is pretty darn close. I don't think you could stick a finger underneath.

Also, if you do have coilovers. You could still get +32 and have no poke, just depends on your camber settings haha.
