These are Avarus wheels from Tire rack. 18s front and back. Bf Goodrich comp 2 a/s 235/50/18 tires. Did not want too much bling or to spend a lot on odd sized and expensive tires. Still lots of meat of the sidewall for comfort and excellent grip and quiet yet aggressive looking tire

When the Tire Rack has a note that says something like, aggressive fitment, and something about rubbing, do the tires actually rub? I remember a warning about 42 mm offset and more, and virtually all rims do not have such an offset, at least 18"+.....

Offset is a factor (as it determines how close to the guard your wheel sits), but it wheel width, tyre size, ride height, camber etc are all factors too.
With 245/35/19s on a 19x8+31 I would occasionally scrub on big bumps
With 225/35/18s on a 18x9+35 I don't scrub, because I have a smaller tyre even though it sits closer to the guard.

I have a similar set up and I haven’t changed the suspension or camber yet. While driving home with the four stock rims and tires in the trunk and back seat I did rub slightly. What suspension modifications did you make to yours to not rub?Can you have passengers in the rear with out rubbing as well?
