Are you lowered? If you are they might rub the fronts.

Hello Justin, I also just purchased 18"x9" Wheels (4) non-deep dish. Can I ask you a question? Does your front rims appear to stick out past the fender top edge? (See my other posted question regarding "Test Fit 18" Wheels).
If they do, does it look ok once the tires are mounted? They look as though they are sticking out of the vehicle to far in the front only, the rears look great. Thanks.
