    A 205 wide tire will most likely rub on the quarter panels, even with a close to oem offset. This will be increased if you are lowered. A simple fender roll and pull of the quarters will take care of that issue.

    It's not lowered ( yet ), but what do you mean by pulling the quarter panels? Thanks.

    It's actually exactly what it sounds like, you roll that lip up, and then they get pulled out, making them just a little bit wider.

    my cars on running on 15 inch, and my tire size are 195/55/15, just for your info.i know people running on 16 inch are using 205/45/16, so shouldnt be a problem i bet. unless, you are lowered.

    Offset is something i will worry too, as our car, especially the rear dont have much space lol

    Generally you won't see rubbing on our cars until your offset gets into the low 30s

    thats what i heard too, unless life 0f your suspension is almost end, 30-40 ET should be fine, i believe stock alloys ET are around 40.

    If lowered, even on a mild spring setup, you will rub with a wide 205 on a 7" at +45mm.

    I guess the 8th gen had more rubbing problems than the 7th gen... I had 205 on 7" and 40mm, no rubbing.

    Hmm, well speaking from experience, that wasn't an issue for me. The only issues I had with that exact size (my previous setup) was full lock would rub the fender liners on the front.

    It could have been a skinny 205 as well. My Yokohama Parada 205s were over 10mm wider than my Raptor Rikens!

    I've been running Buddy Club 15x6.5 42offset on Yokohama S.Drive 205/50-15. i had to roll all 4 corners. Someone on the TN forums had the same wheels on Falken Azenis 205/50-15 and said that they didn't rub. I guess the manufacturer differs in size a bit.
