Default 18x8.5 will fit?

I looked at the wheel guide and it looks like 18x8.5 will rub on full lock, my question it will they rub much more than say a 18x7.5 as it says they will also rub? Or am I better off just finding something that is 18x7.0?

Also if lowering does that make it much worse?

Thanks in advance.

Well it says the 18x7.5 rub in this thread here:

I am just looking from that, I would like to have 0 rub if I could but just trying to figure out what is most practical as this is going to be my daily driver.

if u look at that chart more closely
18x7.5 . . . . . . . 35 . . . . . . . . . . . . . 215/35-18 . . . . Front tire rubs at full lock
18x7.5 . . . . . . . 35-42 . . . . . . . . . . 215/35-18

an offset of 35mm will rub.....im runing 45mm front on a 215/35/18 tire....and 30mm offset rear....the tires are pretty even with each other and no rubbing front or rear....even withthe front tires at full lock

Ok so I need to see what offset I can get them in, I am looking at the ADR FUEL SILVER wheels from victoriatire.com so I will give them a call and see if I can get more info.

Thanks for the info I thought that meant all 18x7.5 and up would rub.
