The guy with the bigazz tires? The 3rd gen RX has shock absorbers in the back instead of struts so you have a lot more room to play with vs our Macpherson struts. For reference: My 18x8" setup is 14.1mm closer to the struts with no issues. Bruce is at about 16.8mm for now. 18.8mm should still clear but I wouldn't want to go much more than that.
lol yeah i saw that the guy had huge tires too. And yeah see the numbers are really close. Mines are more by 2mm and if you guys don’t have rubbing issues I think I’ll clear it too. I wouldn’t want to go bigger either. I’m fine with those numbers. I think I’m going to go ahead and order the wheels and wait for them to come in. Thanks for all your help!

Right now theres a finger width w/ 8.5'' w/ a 20mm offset. I'm wanting to go w/ a 9.5'' width, which means I'd need a 0 offset which'd add 7mm more inner clearence & extend out 33mm......
