I'm currently using the stock size 225/40-18s on my rims, but it looks like I could put 235s on the front because the new rims I have are 18x8.5 instead of 18x8. Half an inch wider. Anyone ever try this? Any problems with rubbing? The offset on my new front rims are 50 instead of the regular 40-45. Any suggestions would be welcome. Is it possible to do without problems?
