18X8.5 +30 F
18X10 +25 R
or should i just do
18x8.5 +30
18x8.5 +40
Do you guys think i can run that without much fender modification (just like a simple roll) i dont mind running stretched tires also.. also wondering if its possible to run as less camber (or no camber at all) + be closed to flushed or flushed
what do i need to do?

^Hey man I see that you're looking to get those XXR 521s that look like VS-XX from that other post. I asked about those sizes and offsets a few pages ago because I'm looking at getting the same rims and Supralative said they should be fine with a good roll.
If you do get those rims can't wait to see your car so I can have an idea how it'll look on mine.

i was going through the pages to see if anyone was running the same offsets + size to see if it fits.. yeah i wont be getting them anytime soon i'll most likely get them once my tires wear out (just bought new tires)Hopefully i wont have to go neg camber dont feel like burning through so many tires. I will want to be flushed good thing to hear that it doesn't require any pulling, just rolling
also wondering if it will clear ls400 bbk

Here is a direct quote of what Supralative replied to my questions:
With that being said, I'm gonna be riding on stock suspension for a while because I'm on a college students budget (ie broke). The most I'll do at this time is probably a good roll on the front and rear fenders so when I do upgrade my suspension there shouldn't be rubbing issues.
You should be fine with your suspension set up if you get those rims. I plan on getting either the 521 or 522 once my tires wear out too, so I can get rid of the stockers at the same time.
Here is a direct quote of what Supralative replied to my questions:
If you roll the rear flat I dont think you will have issues, but it will be close since yours are 10in while mine are 9.5in.
Fronts will rub on turning when they get compressed hard.
I want to roll the fronts to help withe rub issue, but its very
very minimal rubbing. My liners are in tact and hopefully will stay that way. I am not a fan of stretched tires at all, as you can tell by my size choices. If you dont slam the car to the ground I think you will be ok too. A finger gap should have you well enough covered.
I went to Houston this past weekend with an EZ Up in the trunk, two folding chairs, my clothes duffle bag, my friends clothes duffle bag, another friends back of clothes and his camera back up along with 3 in the car and it was tucked, but I had no issues on the highway at all.

kept it conservative.
ABC Exclusive (i'm not sure which exactly, someone wanna name it?)
18x9 +22 / 225/40
18x10 +22 / 245/40
front is already rolled, rear needs to be rolled. i wanna add a 10mm in the front and a 5mm in the back.
