I searched and it seemed like guys were running this. Just wanted to make sure. The rims are Kinesis K58's. 18x9.5 all around with a +50mm offset. Does anyone see any problems with this setup. Rubbing? Or any issues. Oh yeah, on a 93FD with stock suspension. Thanks

Yes 18x9.5 +50 worked beautifully on my car. You will need a 265/35 tire though. Never rubbed once.
