Tried these wheels all around, 18X10 offset 15. Front fenders are lightly pulled, rears are rolled. Tires on wheels are 265/35/18's but 255/35/18 are better fitment i think.

If ya can help me with finding the right offset to avoid rubbing, thanx a whole bunch.
Plans: 18x8.5fr and 18x10rr HRE 547R's High Disk setup front and rear (plan on gettin the endless racing big brake kit 6pot/4pot) also here is my car, and like TopSCecret, i also rub on sharp turns as is right now, so i plan on raising it an inch also when i put the rims on, would that help in going over the bumps and turns and avoid rubbing?
closer look at the drop
