whats the largest offset (widest wheel lip) that can be put on 18X8 wheel that will fit a vibe?

nobody can tell me what the largest offset is that you can put on a set of 18s and have them not interfere?? WOW. very surprising for such a knowledgable group of peeps. Guess i stumped you all.

We all know the answer but we're ignoring you.

actually if anybody kind enough to not ignore me and help me out id really appreciate it, otherwise i understand ive made a mistake in coming to this forum for help. im looking for largest negative offset possible on 18s for an 05 vibe GT.

hey maxxi'm sure as soon as eveyone else gets out of their holiday drunken stupor, they'll be clamoring to give you an answer. i'm only running 17s on my vibe, so i can't help you. happy new year

My brother has 275/40/17 on 10" wide Dymag wheels with a slight drop and no rubbing problems.http://forums.genvibe.com/zero...7.JPGProject Big Boots 1 and 2:http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id ... id=4132P.S. I was only joking in my previous post. This is actually a very helpful place. That's why I've stuck around for so long.

wow!! i think that looks really good as far as wheel width, im not crazy about the rims but thats impressive .............something to think about. no rubbing or interference at all?? how much of a drop? im not sure about lowering mine, im undecided. Although ive seen many posts by several peeps to get rid of wheel gap. I do agree that slight lowering looks really good but im not going for a slammed look by any means. I think ground clearance is a must and its also good for your fascias. I dont wanna crack all mine up from being to low.

The rims are vintage from his 1970 Z28. Read the info in the 2 links.
