Guys, I have a great deal on my hands for a set of M5 wheels with tires and I want to purchase them. Problem is that the wheels are 18 x 8.5 and have a 35 offset. Is this too big or is the offset too little for the Ody ??

These are the wheels/tires..

I blve 35mm offset will work. See this thread, page 15, for Ouzo power's pics.

That was right on the money !! Thanks for the link.

But remember that you need to consider width as well as offset - Ouzo Power's wheels are 18x8; the ones you're looking at are a half inch wider....

The extra .5 inch might cause the fender to rub when the shocks compress.

I know there are a few members running 20 x 8.5 wheels 35mm offset with no rubbing issues.

So can it be said that the 18 x 8.5 35mm offset will also work?

OP, is there a way for you to do a test fit?

I was looking to Get myself 18x8.5 with an offset of 40 for my 2008 Ody with back orders from asia right now all they have is 18x9 +40
does anyone know if I'm looking at some rub? i have stock suspension and i am looking for a little bit of poke fitment.
Does anyone know if its just the fenders that will rub or am i looking at the wheel well too?
