I just got the wheels.
18x9.5 +20
The rears are flush with 265s to the fender. I will have to roll the guards.
The fronts stick out by 0.5-1inch with 265s on. Should I just run stretched tyres, if so what size, or flare the guard out?

Rim Brand and Type: SSR Professors SP1 SBC Stepped Lip
Rim Size f/r: 18x8.5(F), 18x10.5(R)
Rim Offset f/r: +37(F) Hi Disk, +30(R) Lo Disk
Tire Size f/r: 225/40(Front - Kumho Escta), 245/40(Rear - Avon something...)
Suspension Setup: Stock
Comment On Ride: Decent ride from stock 16's to 18's. Slightly rougher, but most of the time its not noticeable. Turning is sloppier, but can be solved by new bushings.
Fender Modifications: Cut Rear.
Any other comments: Rear pokes out a few, not bad at all. When its lowered on coilovers, the 245 rear should tuck perhectly. Fronts I want to run a small spacer to even them out, but its not in the budget now.
Picture:
Cant wait til its lowered, I will post more then.

i'm in need of new tires in the rear badly..currently running 265/40/17 but was wondering if i could run maybe 285's in the rear w/o having to roll or cut the fenders, i have no clue what the offsets are but i do know it's 17x10 and my car is lowered but still have a little gap between the tire and fender...lmk asap...! i don't have any good recent pics but here's one w/ 255 just so you guys could see how it looks like...
and this one's w/ 265 tires
