are you asking this b/c you think it might rub when you turn the wheel? If so then im not sure. I think the tire size makes a difference too though for example if you have a taller tire it might be closer than a skinny one?

I have 18s w/ 245/40 series and i have pleanty of room w/ a 40 offset.

If it wasnt for that i think it would sit nice inside the wheelwell. give it a more "lowered" look

You will probably need a small spacer.

I have 18x8 45mm offset on my 4th gen and I have no problems

I have 235/40/18 though, you should not have any problems

If you need a spacer 5mm would be plenty

I do not think that you will require a spacer though

How do I know if my wheel bearing is bad or if it's both my bearing and hub?
