wheel width

I was wonder if a 18x 8" wide 35mm offset wheel would fit on a lowered 3rd gen, I think they are eibach springs but would they stick out far?
thanx

They won't stick out at all. I would be more worried about rubbing the strut in the rear.

35 is stock offset BTW, but those wheels are 1.5" wider than stock. It also depends on what width tires you use.

Ok, say if I had a 7 wide wheel with 225 tires what would be the highest offset I could get, is 35mm the highest offset you could get even with stock wheels?
