Default Rim width

So from browsing I see the widest we can go without rubbing is 8.5 without rolling fenders

Im going to get a set of 18x8 ASA AR1's.... however im debating on tires cuz im wonderi9ng whats the widest tire you can go.
It recommends 225/40/18
However a friend has done 245's b4... let me know guys whats the widest

thank you. i probably will. it all depends on how the 18's sit on the stock height.

225 is the max width for a lowered car without rolling fenders.
