Default What 18" wheel/tire combo that is sure to have no rub issues? (m)
I did STFA and there's just a million posts about "I rub if 3 people, or corner hard, or change tire brand, etc etc.."

Is there a specific wheel width, ET and tire size on stock or slightly (1") lowered susp that I can get and Know ahead that I won't deal with any rubbing?

Default I'm going to go out on a limb and say 18x8 Achtuning (Hartmann) RS4 reps with 225-40-18 tyres
I don't remember the offset but offset is important

Hartmannwheels, it's not the Hartmann that is an APR dealer.
