I tried to order some rims for my 2002 convertible and ran into problems.

I tried to get 18x7 225/40-18 tires for the car and the Tire Rack said I needed to roll fenders?

Do I have the wrong size?

What do you guys/gals think of Kazera rims?

One word...Offset.

I got your same rim size with 235/40/18 tires. My offset is +38 and no rubbing at all. Want more info about offset? Check out what I found at your seller's website...

Kazera rims look pretty good. Out of all the ones they had on display I like this one the best...

You should be fine. I don't see how 2 mm will hurt you.

Coilovers rock! good luck
