My friend has some 18' rims off of his 1998 Toyota Avalon that he is selling. I want to buy them, but he is not sure of the offset. Before I buy them, I want to make sure they fit and see what size tires I will need so that I have enough clearance and don't have to roll the fenders. They are 18x7.5. Any suggestions would be appreciated! Not knowing the offset, I can't really use the tire guide on the forum to deterime this info.

 

They are most likely +45 or +50 offset like most factory wheels.

 

I can visually see that they are offset more than factory. I looked all other the rims for the offset to be stamped somewhere, but it wasn't. Is there anyway that I can messure it to see what it is? Like from the inside or outside of the rim?

 

What about some 235/45/18? You're not going to have any problem fitting a 7.5inch wheel on a SC. I have 9.'s in the front with a 265 and 10.5's in my rear on 285's I did have to roll my rears so they wouldn't rub but you will have no problem.

 

are you sure you didn't see something like 42j?

quick google search said they are 42+ offset on the avalon

 

18x7.5 +42?

 

Thanks guys! Looks like I shouldn't have a problem with them fitting. And I did look all over the inside of the rim for a 2 digit number between 20-50, and couldn't find any.
