Hey guys, I'm in need of some advice. I know that a 19x9.5 & 10.5 with +22 would fit fine with a roll but was contemplating about going 19x10.5 +12 all round with with maybe some 235/30/19? Was thinking about shaving my fenders or do I need a roll and pull for these.

I'm going to say sorry in advance if there is an answer to my question somewhere in this thread, but after looking through about half of the 317 pages of this I still haven't gotten an answer i'm happy with haha. I've got a 97, and the picture i'm going to attach from a few pages back is the exact look im going for, does anyone know the size/offset or any other info on this car? Mine is white as well and like i said this is exactly what i'm looking for as far as fitment, and even style of wheel??

I am going for a square look (no lip sticking out/tires cover the whole wheel) on my wheels that will also clear my fenders by just rolling them.
My wheels are 18x9.5 F 18x10.5 R +30 all around.
Will 265/35 for the front and 275/35 have a square look, and will it clear front and back?
Does anyone suggest better tire sizes for the square look?

How do you guys think the 18x8.5 18X10 +25's would look on a stock suspension? I love the fitment that they get when the car is lowered, but i'm not ready to spend a bunch of money on coilovers just yet and i'm worried its going to look funny with that offset on stock alignment/camber/height? :/

* I was wondering how tire sizes with 255/35 front and 265/35 would look instead for my wheel sizes

JLam, that's gonna be a 1 cm tire width/bulge and 3mm difference in height. This will vary among between different tire brands. IMO, it all comes down to brand. Google images of 255/35 18x9.5 and 265/35 18x9.5 to see the slight size differences between different brands i.e some tires run wider/narrower than others i.e. federals run wide. Raines good with tires, maybe he can chime in
