ok all i need some help with some wheel advice

right now i have bf goodrich kdw's....tire size is 225-40,r18's

the rims im deciding between are the rial nogaros, black evo 5's, or the axis mods

the axis mod rim size is 18X7.5 5X110 ok obviously these are the right lug pattern but how do i know if these fit??18X7.5??

The tires would fit a 7.5' wheel just fine. As far as the wheel clearing the fender well...I don't actually know but I would expect they might rub. I have this problem with my Contour, 7' wide wheels rub on the back, the stock 6.5' wheels are fine . You also want to look into the offset of the wheel. The wider wheel might clear if the offset allows it.

Hehe, no clue. Sorry. I have to go to bed in a couple of min, but you should be able to research the offsets yourself.

i believe 38-42 is the acceptable offset for our cars, and 18x7.5 should have no rubbing issues, even with springs.

i think the evo 5's have to be drilled to 5x110, Im not sure tho
