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.


this link will help..

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

Thanks! Yeah I have to weigh all those factors as well. I hope the gold looks good w/ the hot lava.

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