Default Will this be a problem?

I wanted to know if 18x7 rims with a +42mm offset would look bad on my car 2001 6GEN. I am running 18x7.5 +45mm now but might get new rims soon. I like the fit of my current rims and was thinking since its 18x7 rims it will sticking in the fenders which is a look that I don't like, or will that change since the offset is 42mm. I am asking question because someone on the board told my he nevers see's 6gen with 18x7 rims? if anyone can answer my questions it would help me out big time. Pics of 6gens with 18x7 rims would help also.

I got 18X7 w/ 42 offset + 225/40/18 Nitto 555 tires, they will stick out a little bit in front and about flush with the fender in the back.

do you got pics bro that would be damm great, I dont want rims that will go in the fender if you know what I mean. It looks better if it sticks out a little. If you have pic please hook me up so I can get an idea. There rims I want are on ebay and the auction will finish in a few hours thats why I need this info thanks alot. Oh what kinda of car do you have.

I love the rims man I can respect your opinon for sure, thats why everyone has there type. I see some 6gens with enkei RS5's and they make them in the same size as these rims. Can you tell me if its a good fit since its 18x7 with +42mm offset

I just went out to take a look at my tires again, the front sticks out about 1/4 inch while the back sticks out about 2-3mm. I got 2000 black sedan, looks almost like the 2nd car in LX4CYL signature. I think the black car is Jschmiddy and he has 18" wheel too. I'm working right now so no pictures
