What are you dropped on? I am running 18 X 8 all the way around and swapped out my TRD for Tanabe DF210's...I only rubbed in the rear on large bumps with the TRD's...With the Tanabe's, I had to grind the rear fender lip...You will be fine in the front, but the 18 X 9 in a 35 offset may rub...

well hope this helps, here is what i'm on with tein basics (back is ALL the way down, front got a few more cranks) and have no rubbing issues at all. even loaded up the whole trunk, back seat and front seat with stuff and hit some big dips and didn't rub.

18" x 8.5" +37 NR / 18" x 9" +40 SL

I have an RS1 with the TRD springs it came with. With the offset at +35 in the rear what are my options? Cut the inner fender? Or are these wheels just not going to work?

Thanks you guys, I really like the staggered look of those wheels, and I hope with the TRD's the rubbing wont be to bad. If I have to cut the rear fenderwells, I guess I'll break out the grinder..
