Default Weld RTS Wheels

Looking to buy some rts 71 wheels for my 02 ws6. Is anyone running 18’s without having to roll the rear quarter lips? I’m currently running 17x11’s out back without any issues and looking at 18x10 or 18x11’s. Any feedback would be appreciated guys thanks

I currently run 315s in the rear with my 18x11 RTSs and have not rolled my fenders, HOWEVER I recommend rolling them. I have a few slight cuts here and there since my car is lowered.

18x10.5 RTSs with 295s all around here and I had to roll my rear fenders or they would rub, running +50 offset. if you are not lowered you can probably get away with not rolling fenders, otherwise its good piece of mind

just make sure you keep the metal/paint warm with a heat gun and that should help keep it from cracking.
