Question for GC8 owners and anyone

will a 18x9 rim with +35 offset fit on a gc8? don't worry about the fender rubbing, im more worried about the strut.
thanks

doughtful. thats a pretty rough offset. mine is brutally close and it's 48+. you won't really know till you try though. if all else fails you could use a spacer but most people would advise aginst it.

i think it will be fine with that offset ive read on rs25 people with 17x8 with a 48 not rubbing the strut.with the 35 it will bring it closer to the quarter/fender and away from the strut
