Hello everyone, first post so bear with me. I'm looking at getting some summer wheels/tires in a few months after winter. I've mainly been a truck/suv guy my whole life and haven't had to worry much about wheel fitment as much as tire size so I'm a tad lost on this.
I've looked at a couple websites and think I have a basic grasp on what the dimensions mean. With that said I'd like to ask the more knowledgeable about the wheels I'm looking at should clear.
I'm looking at some Motegi MR145 in a 18x8.5 with a +42mm offset. Would like to wrap them in a 235/40 tire. From what I can see the wheel will be 16mm(.6") closer to the suspension and I'd gain 22mm(.86") of width towards the fender.
I dont currently have access to my car as I'm out of town for work, but I assume these should fit? I think an 8" wide wheel would be ideal but that one isn't able in that size unfortunately.
Thanks for any input.
