ADR Rims

these are 18 x 7.5 with a 42mm offset. the wheel/tire package comes with 225/40/18 tire. would i rub with this?

the guy told me at no additional cost i can get 215/35/18 but thats too low profile on a 18. can somebody give me some insight?

Possibly, but probably not...Also, 35 is not to small of a sidewall, but you need a wide ass tire, like a 235... I ride 18X7.5 with a 40 offset on 225/40's, and I'm straight...
