18x7.5 LE37's...I take it most are running 225/40/18? What is the offset ET on these? 32 iirc? I'm looking to swap out my Sportecs and don't mind going to a 7.5 width wheel...as long as I don;t rub. TIA

acutally...I like 18's on our cars...19's sometimes look weird...especially for Volks
i don't like how the Spokes abruptly cuve in more into the inside on the Lip with 19's. The 18's look right IMHO...like your car was =)

I'm at ~25.25 or slightly lower in the front and don't have rubbing...
there was one time where I hammered it through a fast right-hand turn and hit a dip. Drivers side tire rubbed slightly on the plastic liner about 3/8" away from the metal fender lip(stock, not rolled on my car) but thats the only time so far.
Mine are 18x7.5 ET30s with 225/40/18 Dunlop SP9Ks. Has really been a good wheel so far. See picposter for shots if interested.
