New rims...concerned with clearance though

[Jayrongavilla]

Just picked up fuel rebels 18x9 with +1 offset I love the look but the rim/caliper clearance is a little concerning lol..think this would be ok?

I think you’ll be okay. I’ve been running Fuel Blitz wheels, same size, same offset, same close clearance, for about two years without issue.

Awesome thanks man was worried I had to pick uo spacers or new rims

Should be fine. If it becomes an issue either a very Minimal spacer or shave the caliper slightly but I don’t think it’ll come that.

You'll be fine, my wheels have the same clearance.

Fuel had told me the +1
should fit with no issues.

The only thing I’d say is make sure where they put the wheel weights when balancing.

I have 18x9 fuel clash but with a -12 offset. The barrel of the wheel does fit over the caliper but just barely. I got mine with tires from custom offset and the sticky weights they used hit the calipers and when having the lift installed my guy has to rebalance all the wheels and put weights on the end of the wheels. So that’s the only issue I had.

I would say though if you plan to lift in the future make sure backspacing on wheels will be gtg for your lift.

If it's clear when you mount them, should stay clear when driving. The caliper shouldn't move around.

That is way more offset than stock so you should be great.

Found that put the hard way lol one of the weight got caught and screwed thw inside of the rim up...ended up using balancing beads

what Are your experiences with the beads? Tire shop is wanting me to use them and I don’t know if I want to.
