CCW 500 - they don't give out back spacing/ spec's.
Most likely supra fitment.

What would you guys go with for spacer?
Will be running 18x8.5 35offset with 245/40/18 in front
rears are 18x9.5 45offset with 275/35/18 in rear
not sure if I should go with a 10m or 15mm spacer in the rear
kind of leaning towards the 15mm but dont want to pull fender
at all....plan on cutting the lip though

Dude... 25 mm in the rear for sure! At least! 45 offset is so high.

I'll mount up my 18x10.5 +16 and show you how it sits on cut fenders. Perfection. You can definitely go more aggressive.

Um.... keep in mind tire size is more important here than wheel size....

He has 275's... without running major negative camber, +30 is about as low as he can go with rolled/cut fenders...

I run +35 and 285's with -2.5 camber and completely flat rolled fenders and there is less than 5mm of space, my pinky won't fit between the fender and the tire...

Can you post pictures of your fitment? I just don't see there being a problem running a 9.5 with +20 offset regardless of tire size...

the wheel width doesn't really matter... it's offset and tire width that matter more than anything...

I'll get a pic today sometime...

Thanks I'm not saying I think you're wrong. I just want to see what it looks like for reference purposes.
