Default Questions about Fitment rubbing non staggered

Some guy is selling some rims on the forum that I really like but its non staggered

and the offsets are a little low... would they fit??

18x8.5 and +48 all around.

If I were to get them, I would put 225-40-18s all around..


Would they fit? Would they rub on the S with about a 1.5" drop?


I dont track the car, just use it as a commuter.

Fronts will require fender modification.

What kind of fender modification is needed? I'm not really familiar with the mods there are.

thanks for your quick response

The car would not handle very well either with the same size on all four corners.
