How would 18x9.5 +35 fronts and 18x10.5 +22 rears fit? Rays discontinued higher offsets on 18x10.5 rims, and i'm trying NOT to run negative camber. So what would be required to run that rim in the back? Would it be better to get the porsche option TE37's and have a shop re-drill them?

It depends on how low you are and the size of tire you want to run. The rear will require plenty of pulling if you don't want too much camber and a wide size tire like 265+. The front should fit fine if you aren't very low but everything still depends on the size tire you run.
So in the future to anyone that asks about what size wheel would fit, please list the wheel diameter, width, offset, tire size they desire front and rear, how low, and how much camber they are running or want to run. It would make this thread help everyone much better. Thank you.

Just a newb question, but do you guys know if I could run a 255 or 265/35/18 on a 18x9.5 +20 offset? I'd like to run a bigger tire, and my fenders are rolled, but I don't want to buy the wheels/tires and have them rub/hit.
so pretty much.. ( I don't want to have to pull the fender out)
18x9.5 +20 offset about 2.3 degrees of camber, 255/35/18 or 265/35/18
I know I could get by with a 235/40/18, but I just think that is way skinny for the rear...
I've had 18x10 + 38 offset with a 285 on there, but couldn't lower it too much due to non-rolled fenders...

I took some measurements and it looks like i'm gonna have to pull the fenders 2.2 Cm or 22 mm
I'm really trying to avoid that flared look if i can, is there anything that i can do to avoid that? what about the porsche solution?I'm lowered on Gixxer coilovers, probably an inch gap in the back. I dont mind running very slight camber, as long as it doesnt hinder traction, same for stretched tires.

I had 245/35/19 in front and 295/30/19 in rear and it rubbed like crazy (on non-rolled fenders) from MN to FL because I packed the car when I moved...
