Ed,

Those were +40 not +32 ?

I too like those Axis Hiro 18x8.5 +35. But don't like 225/40/18 on those as it seems undersized. But if 245/35/18 will rub then there is no point to get 8.5" wheels.


You don't think it rubbed due to 45's instead of 40's ?

I run 245/35/18 and have had no problems with rubbing.

What offset ?

How does a tire that's over 9 inches wide seem undersized for an 8.5" wide wheel?

Maybe not undersized as far as physically.
But I prefer sidewalls that look square off with the wheel. Not streched/lowrider looking.

To me that just doesn't look as good as a flush look. Plus the optimal tire size for that wheel should be 245/35/18, performance plays a factor here as well.
