Need assurance, 24mm offset on s197
I'm going to buy my black chrome 18x9 saleen replicas shortly. I need to get a clear yes that these wheels will fit, no rubbing on my fenders, or hitting my brakes in the front. I'm going 275/40-18 all around. I know they will stick out in the rear. I just wanted to check again since I'm going to order with in the next couple days.

Are you lowered? I'm on a stock suspension with 275's on 45 mm offset and I'd say you'll be fine with that additional 21 mm shift. You may come close to the outer edge of the top of the fender if you bottom out but most likely won't hit.

They will just stick out an inch more than the
OEM 50mm offset for the 18x8.5" stockers.
Beware that with 275/40-18s on 50mm offset
rims the gravel gets thrown and the paint on
your rockers, bottom of doors and rear bumper
area get rock chipped quite quickly. I would
suspect sticking out further would just
aggravate the situation. And sticky tires
dont help either.

I'm sitting on 255/45/17 on 17x9" XXRs with a 25mm offset and Eibach Pro kit lowering springs and there's no rub.
The overall diameter of the tires you chose and the ones I chose is a difference of about 5/8" larger. The tires you chose are also about 5/8" smaller in diameter than stock tires as well giving you a bit more clearance.
