Wheels offset and clearance

[bobbyjwoods]

I am planning on buying a set of LM replicas but i am unsure of what size will clear without any problem.the car already has Weitec 35mm springs on it and the choices of wheel are 18 x 8.5 et38 or 18 x 8.5 et45. I am new to the scene so a proper explanation would be greatly welcomed.

i have a set off bbs lm alloys 18" witch are 8j with 215/35/18 tyres witch has a slight stretch and i can lower to the floor and doesnt catch at all!
i did have 225/40/18 on before and they used catch on the archs when turning and its wasnt lowered that much
