um what is the size for our legends tires on 18" and 19"?(for example: 18x?) and does just any kind of rims fit? Thinking about the RS2 rims..... thanks!!!

Well, that is a wide open question, but let me try. There is 18x7,18x7.5,18x8, and I think 18x8.5 Hell maybe even 18x9. I have 18x7.5 with a +45 offset (very important when purchasing rims) Now, if you go with a wider rim such as 18x8 or higher I recommend you look into purchasing a rim with a higher offset like +48. Have you seen cars with the rims sticking out from under the fender? Well, that is due to improper offset.


Here is my 2 cents:

18x7 +42
18x7.5 +45
18x8 +48

Not sure what thr RS2's specs are.

Lets see what the other members have to say.

I agree with Cakedaddy...
I am running a 18 x 7.5 with +42mm offset.
It would be in your best interest to go no higher than 18 x 8, and as close to +50mm as possible

how about for 19's? oh and i heard that from a forum that 19's rubs, is that true? if so then if you were to speed and hit something lot a pot hole, would it not smash against that rubbing part and might later cause damage to your car?

19's are for the big boyz... w/ 19's you can go 19X8 w/ a high offset of like +50 and up... the tires would be 235/35/19 I beleive... Yes you can rub w/ 19's but with proper offset you will be fine..

Yes larger wheels can have an effect on your car if they hit the fender or wheelwell...(If your car is slammed)

Hi there, i have 19x7.5 with +48 offset. My car also has H&R springs and koni's all around on lowest perch. My guess is it's dropped alittle under 2" all around, i have not yet had it rub yet, no problems. Hope this helps. It's a 1995 ls coupe, Nate
