eibach & +10 offset?

I was looking for information using the search, but couldn't find anyone running the same size wheel tire combo that I am ( 22 x 9.5 ,10 x114.3 with + 10 offset ) I plan on installing the eibach 1.6 kit this week, and was wondering if I will I have major rub issues? Thanks in advance, Jared.

I dont know anyone running that setup....but I have heard people getting minor rubbing issues with the eibachs and a +15mm offset, so I would assume a +10mm offset would definately have rubbing with the eibachs. And this is not rubbing on the a-arms, I mean rubbing on the fender wells when hitting dips and such.

I guess that I don't fully understand what the offset is then. The wheel is the same width, what makes the smaller offset more likely to rub?

yes +18 sits perfect with no rubbing at all, as long as the wheel is 22x9.5

from what I've read, I don't think I will have much luck trying to run my +10 offset with the 1.6 drop.
