Has anyone ehad any problems with fitting 18x8 to a TJ sports. It's a wagon and has the ground effects kit. Also how low to go without problems. Thing is tyre shop is telling me they will rub and that you can't fit 18x8 to a wagon. Car will be lowered after wheels are fitted so it's at standard height now. I know plenty of you have 18s, just weren't sure if you've had problems or not. Any help\advice would be appreciated. tHANKS.

depends how low u go ...

i have 18" 235's and my guards sit just ontop of the rims and have no scrubbing issues.

if u have lowered it anymore than super lows ull need to get ur guards rolled .... but speaking from everience ( i have the same kit as u) once u roll ur guards the falres may be a little loose as they will be missing 2 sections it is meant to bolt onto and the guards are roleld ... though is not really an issue just stick it back on better

Have 18's on mine. They didnt scrub with super lows but they are now cause i have gone lower just rubs on the front when you are at full lock. You should be right.
