Has anyone ever had any problems with tire rubbing while riding on 205/45/16's with a wheel offset of +42? Looking at getting a set of wheels and tires and don't want to get any tire rubbing out of the deal.

215/45/16 azenis, no rubbing!

but then again my car is not dumped to the floor and my rear fenders are rolled.

I second the rear fenders being rolled! --Jack up the car and use a baseball bat. Its not that simple being said like that. Search for some instructions. There's plenty on this web board and the Internet. -&gt; Rolling Fenders &lt;-

TheZen, what area of the car do you exactly rub? Front or back?

I'm not rubbing at all, haven't even picked up the wheels or tires yet, just wanting to make sure that there would be no problems if I do later on.

 

205/45/16 no rub

 

I rub on sharp turns. Like u-turns. But not any other than that.

same here. lowered 1.7 with rolled rear fenders

 

I got a set of 17s w/205/40/17 tires, and they only rub when turning in a circle with the wheel turned all the way(front only). The rims have a +40 offset with a 5mm spacer!! My car, in the rear, is dropped about 1.8 - 2".
