Will this size wheel cause any problems or annoyances? Will I have a problem with the center caps as I do not want to put spacers on! I am looking for a wheel that has a nice lip, that is 5 spokes, and this is the only wheel i can find with these dimensions. I dont want to push my luck and was wanting to stay at 18x8. Thanks

I have a set. You will be fine, although center cap mounting will depend on the wheel itself.
if you go bigger you might rub in the front on the inner fender well when you turn the wheel all the way. like parking or making a u-turn.

I don't rub on 245 40 18s. Maybe on a 4th gen you would have rubbing issues, but not a 5th? Originally Posted by 97GLES
