currently running a 18x10+18 with a 235 40 up front i might add a 10mm spacer tho and drop down to a 225 40 once my New stances arrive so i can go lower.. Currently on Tein super streets

im not lowered im waiting on that because of this, it rubs stock height i already fender rolled but still rubs so im looking for what stretch i can put on it so i can lower it.
heres what i have.

I have a wide body kit and want to put 18' deep dishes on my car because I have a 3" spacer in the back all ready if I'm not mistaken and it still doesn't come out to the side wall fender.

Hello wheel gurus. Quick question on tire sizes. I'm thinking about getting some 19x8.5/9.5 with 17/25 offsets front and rear respectively. How would 225/35 fronts and 245/35 rears look and fit? Any suggestions? Car is stock height as of now but will drop, lower, pull as needed. Thanks

New here, just wondering if someone could tell me if 18x9.5/10.5 +30/+30 will sit flush and if not, what size spacers would be recommended.

Front: Minor poke. Roll fenders. Maybe small pull needed.
Rear: Poking. Needs about 20mm pull with maxed out negative oem camber.

Overall very nice fitment. If you do a long clean pull in the rear, it will look almost oem.

^25mm spacer. Don't change tire. Less tire, less scrape. Skinny/stretched tires look awful only when the wheel is sunken. You can change bigger tire to front if your rear tire stretch doesn't match with the front stretch.

Just afraid of getting my wheels bent from pot holes and such. I have 19x10 275/35/19s in the rear so i really cant fit that in the front plus it would look just plain ugly if i switched them. Il probably throw on some spacers and lower it some more if needed. New tires arent so cheap.
