my setup with questions.
18x8 40 offset front
18x9.5 40 offset rear
obviously I think the front needs a spacer. What tires should I be able to get away with do you think. I was thinking 245/40/18 - 275/35/18 or 235/40/18 - 265/35/18. Lemmie know what you guys think and possibly which spacer I should get . thnx

I will be using espelir's thnx for the info, 1985 I wanna run a meaty sucker in the rear ultimately. Don't you think with those kinds of spacers it would push my rears beyond the fender line without some major rolling? Thats kinda what I'm trying to avoid, I can roll a little , but prefer not a lot.

I need help with tire size...
18x9.5 +23, I am lowered on Espelir springs which give me about 1 finger gap between the tire and fender. I want to stick a wide tire in the rear such as a 265 or 275. If I roll the rear fenders as flat as possible can I fit a 265/35 or 275/35?

With a mild say one inch drop, what size tires would be able to clear the stock fenders without a roll or a cut? Would they be flush?
18 x 8 +26 fronts and 18 x 9 +20 rear
