Both my cars have 18's, I did little homework and they fit fine with no rubbing issues. Did I mention they perform well and don't rub?

18x9 in front, 18x10 in the rear.

And it looks like mostly guys with the exception of Suppra Girl. Interesting poll.

My bad...I'm sure those 18's work fine for most street driving. I have 17's with TEIN flex coilovers on the stiffest setting and on track and under heavy breaking from about 130 mph into tight 70 mph turns they can rub the inside fenders on the front.

Did I mention for normal street driving they don't rub? But they're just 17's.

I have seen 1 or 2 Supra's with 18's and damaged fenders so I still say be careful going to 18's...unless you drive like a pussy.
