Hey everyone,
I'm looking at the MB Battle rims 18 x 9.5...I love the deep dish concave look. My problem is I want to fit these wheels on without having to roll my fenders. I know this is possible because I have seen another thread on this board by the poster, Jnasti, who was able to accomplish this. The tire specs were 215/35/18 with an offset of +23. My main concern with that tire spec is the tires are stretch to its limit.........which has me a bit concern about how safe they are. Basically my question follows as - is there some type of math or equation to help me find different combinations of tire specs, that will allow a 18 x 9.5 inch wheel to fit without any fender rolling?? I don't mind going down to a 17 inch wheel if it means giving me more options regarding tire specs.
I hope all that made sense, I am still learning this stuff. Funny thing is I contacted MB Battle rims, but the customer service rep told me those rims don't fit the 2014 civic si......which I found weird considering Jnasti was able to do this on his 2012 SI. I mentioned this to him, but he told me he didn't really know............so yea that was end of convo lol.
Anyway I appreciate any help! Thanks!!
