Wheel Fitment Question!!
So I finally got ready to order my wheels (XXR 526) but at the last minute I was told by the vendor that the sizes I want don't exist!!! The closest thing to what I want is 18 x 9 +25 offset and 18 x 10.5 +20 offset. That is a little more aggressive than what I had planned!! My question is will these wheels fit without poking out? The car is not lowered yet but I plan to lower it will coilovers in the future. I don't mind if I have to slightly pull and/or roll the fenders. I also want to be able to clear Supra calipers as well. Any advice or info would be greatly appreciated. This is my daily driver so I would like to avoid as many problems as possible.

Search the XXR wheel fitment thread on supraforums is my advice..
I am running the 18x10 +25 rears and feel like with a 265 or 275 tire and cutting the fenders you would be fine. Even a little roll/pull would easily clear it. I run 285's but i would need a roll as well to clear better.
Those fronts I am unsure about.. my fronts dont rub at my height but I do know the 18x8.5 +25 fit TT brakes, and I assume the 9" wide would too.. but you would DEF. need to roll your front fenders to accommodate

When a car is lowered 3-4" on coilovers with natural camber, 8.5" with a 0 offset will sit flush for the fronts (9.5" with a +5 offset for the rears)
Playing around with an offset calculator - this is what I have found.
Assuming car is not lowered at the moment, the front will poke by ~16mm on stock height
The rears will poke out by A LOT on stock height.
You might need to get coilovers to dial in the natural negative camber for these to fit, or get camber adjustable upper control arms
(shameless plug, I am selling adjustable camber upper control arms for the fronts and rears!)

From my experience, 8.5" with a 35 offset is flush on the fronts at stock height.

18x9 would fit good in my opinion for the rears
