it will fit pretty nicely. A little roll and you should be fine. What kind of look are you going for?

Whats up Vinh! Im either goin to go with 18x9.5 and 10 +38 all around, or 18x9.5 +15 and 18x10.5 +15. I dont want stupidly stretched tires, so im thinking of going with the +38, beefy tires, then a 5 to 5mm spacer to get it to sit out a bit farther if need be.......... Car is on Tein Basics, so its gonna be low

watsup playa!! That setup should be perfect since you wanna run a full profile on the tire. The 10.5 is probably going to need some stretch/camber/slight pull for sure. I'm going to go ahead and assume you picked up an sc again.

I'm looking at some new wheels..

Work VS-XX

I'm getting the SUPRA TT calipers soon, so I guess I need the (R Disk) type wheel in the front and (O Disk) type in the rear? I want nice fitment, rolling and MINOR pulling if anything. If I don't need to pull, it'll be better
Will be slammed on Tanabe Sustec Pro-Five coilovers

Here's what the choices are

18x9.5 + 26 (O Disk)
18x9.5 + 14 (O Disk)
18x9.5 + 28 (R Disk)
18x9.5 +15 (R Disk)

18x10.5 + 26 (O Disk)
18x10.5 + 14 (O Disk)
18x10.5 + 28 (R Disk)
18x10.5 + 15 (R Disk)

This is my planned setup...

- Dropped 2" with TT shocks and lowering springs (already purchased and waiting for install).
- Wheels: Front: 19x8.5 +35 ; Rear: 19x9.5 +35
- Tires: Front: 235/35 ; Rear: 265/40 or 265/30

First, how will this look? Second, what fender mods will be necessary with the 2" drop? I'm assuming I will at least need to cut or roll my rears. Third, if someone has specs similar to this, please post pics! I'm anxious to see my future stance.
you will only need a mild roll with that for the rears, but the front will be sunken by alot...the rears won't look that bad, but with a 2 inch drop it will be sunken too. I'm not dropped that much and mine looks sunken, although still acceptable...check my sig (18x10 +38)

225/35/18 up front
245/35/18 in the rear

20mm wide fender in the front with slight camber.
Flare and maybe -6 degree of camber in the rear.

But they certainly WILL fit.

What kind of wheels are they btw? pics?

I'm now running 18x9.5 +9 (was +24 but I just installed 15mm spacers) R-disk up front with 225/40/18. And 18x10.5 +24 O-disk rear with 245/40/18.
My front has a slight roll and no fender liner. Rear is shaved and slight rolled. I had 265/35 in the rear but since I'm running a smaller tire, I can run less camber. I haven't gotten an alignment but when I do I'll try to get around -2 degrees or at least -2.5.

I will get new pics of how it looks real soon.
