Wheel question

If I was looking at a wheel that was available in a 17x8.5 with either a +18 or 0 offset, would the +18 stick outside the wheelwell?

You are likely to get a more accurate answer, but for now, I run 9 inch wheels and 25mm offset and the edge of the tire sticks out about 3/8 of an inch beyond fender at the top. The actual tread block is almost perfectly flush. You have 7mm less offset, just over a quarter inch less, on a rim that is one quarter inch narrower on each side, so my guess is it will be very similar.
Hopefully someone will chime in with exactly what you want to run.

Bump. Would appreciate if anyone knows. Have been looking at pics with both offsets and I can't tell!

The wheels I'm talking about are Raceline Clutch 934G.

Stock wheels are +44 offset. A +18 will stick out about 1" more, a 0 offset will stick out about 1.75" more than stock. That is if the stock wheel is 8.5" wide as well.
