I'm definitely interested in purchasing these wheels @ 18x7.5 35 with 225/40 tire..Got the TRD springs order and KYB struts are coming soon...So lemme know I'm overdue. Seriously..

I always liked those rims. why not go with 225/45 to fill the gap a little better?

Nice rims. What colour is your car?

I was recently quoted Maxxis MA-Z1 ultra high performance tires (235/40/R18) for my car - but most seem to recommend 225/45/18's.

They only make width size of 7.5 in that style from what i've seen.

The toss up right now is to go either 35mm or 45mm offset..I can't decide.

I have a 45 offset now I think a 35 or 38 would look better.

I'm a rim/rubber newbie so I apologize for this seemingly stupid question. What do the various offset options mean/accomplish?

Offset is pretty much how far the wheel will stick out. The lower you go the more it sticks out..It gives a flush fitment with the fender...

I want a 35mm just worried about when I lower it and have people inside..
