    Question Wheel offset and suspension/ wheel bearing wear.

    Ive got an FN2 type r and im looking to buy a new set of wheels.
    What offset are you guys running? and do a wider offset wheel affect wheel bearings and other suspension components? what are your experiences?
    oem wheels are 18x7.5 +55. would +35 offset be safe to run without putting my bearings at risk?
    i dont track my car. just daily driving and some spirited driving here and here.

    Any wheels with a lower offset than oem factory will reduce wheel bearing life. Especially, the front wheel bearings. +35mm offset is a huge change from +55mm. Of course, not tracking your car helps, but expect to change front wheel bearings at some point.
