18x7.5 with offset 48... will they fit?
hey all, i just got some rims off ebay but they sent me the wrong rims. i ordered 17x7 with offset 40 but they sent me 18x7.5 with offset 48. does anyone know if these rims will fit my 98 maxima? thanks.

why don't you get up and stop being lazy and put them on!!!! they prob do'nt have tires, but you can still see if the rim is going to hit anything like the control arms, etc. etc. If you they do fit, and you have extra cash laying around, you lucked out in a way. but lemme tell you that tires are much more expensive for 18's than 17's. approx $60 more on each tire. so $60 x 4 is another $240 you woulda saved if you went with 17's instead of 18's

sorry, didn't mean to sound like i was bashing on you. sorry if you took it the wrong way. but it should fit without a problem. if not use spacers. but i'm pretty sure that they will fit...but you can still open one of the boxes and just put them on your car to check if it does fit correctly

i tried with a 10mm spacer but still wasn't enough space!! and plus the lugs were barely staying on so i took them off and did this... take the nubs off the center cap and super glue it on to the rims it's been on past 2-3 months now and it's waaaay better than having no center cap
