Default Wheel and Tires Question

I have a 2000 GS 300 on Tein SS Coilovers. I was given a set of 18x8 OZ Racing wheels and want to know is 245/40/18 tires will rub or have any issues. Any insight will be helpful. Thanks

Not really sure the offsets. The wheels are used. Is it possible to be marked on the wheels?

yes, you should see it somewhere on the inner rim next to the letters ET

unless youre dumped, depending on aspect ratios (im assuming you're in the 30-40 range anyways) i wouldn't forsee any problems barring any offsets <+25 or so.
