Have a line on a set of Bronze 18" TE37XTs but from what I understand running 275/70/18s would require some fender massaging. I REALLY like that they are super strong and only 19lbs per wheel however.

The alternative option that i've been looking forward to for years now was a set of EvoCourse 18s. Im not sure of the weight of these but the offset seems to be more of a bolt on affair from what I gather. These would be considerably cheaper also. What mods would be required to run the same size tire on a set of EvoCourses?

What experience have people had? Id rather not have to chop up fenders if i can avoid it...
 
Yeah if you plan to wheel and flex that thing, there's a very good chance those will rub. IIRC, EvoCourse can be had in +40 offset which is closer to ideal and will not require any fender mods. A +25 offset is generally about as agressive as one can get away with on these rigs to still tuck on stock body.

I believe the EvoCorse offset for the 200 is +45.

I appreciate the input. thanks!
 
0 offset is going to stick out quite a bit. To me, that could look ok if you're lifted. If you're on stock suspension, not so much.

I have Evocourse and 285 65 18 and have very minor rubbing up front when full lock, backing up. Haven't even bothered using a heat gun to alleviate it's so minor.

Wheels are et45 5x130 18x8.5

Just noticed that the 17x8 EvoCorse wheels come in +40 offset.

Leaning towards those because it looks like a better selection of tires and overall weight savings.

Your rig looks awesome with the 18s!
