So what size tire is everyone with 18x7.5 rims using. Include your offset and pics if you have them(thumb)
 
225/40/18 on 8" with 45 offset on Cobb springs with front and rear Hotchie antisways and there are some members that rolled the rear fender to fit the 235 and sicko 245s
 
With a 7.5" wide wheel, I would think you should only run 215 and 225/45's, 225 and 235/40's. If you want wider tires, I would say go with a wider wheel as well.
 
The rims I got are 18x7.5 with a 52 mm offset. Im just looking for a tire that will add width and fill up some wheel gap. What would you guys suggest
 
225/45's are little taller and wider which should fill up the gap a little. 235/40's are basically the same height as the stockers, just wider.
 
Im going to be lowered on BCs this winter so what about rubbing?

Depending on how much you lower the car and the dampening settings, you might rub with the 225/45's or 235/40's. You'll find out when the time comes and might need to roll them fenders. How are you Cobb springs doing by the way? Don't like them anymore? Any more pictures?
 
Well my wheels/tires finally showed up today and I'm telling you the 235/40/18 fits perfect on a 7.5" wide wheel. Its not bulging out at all. Maybe its because of how stiff the sidewalls are on these Azenis.
