Exclamation Need help offset?

Hey there fellow SC enthusiasts I just wanted to know the right offset to get a flush set on my car, I don't want to run camber, I'm just looking for a straight setup. I also don't want to pull my tires or roll my fenders that much, is this to aggressive "Fronts are 18X10 +38 and Rears are 18x10.5 +15." I would like to get an offset to look like these SC's down here. Please help, thanks I really appreciate it.

The ones you have listed should accomplish what you want. The offsets are a bit aggressive for my taste because you won't be able to run proper tires without pulling the fenders.

you're gonna hafta roll your fenders regardless man, just resign yourself to it. it's really no biggie. but if you don't wanna run stretched tires, you'll hafta pull your fenders too. it's not easy getting a nice, flush look. you hafta make some sacrifices.

Damn, I really didn't want to but since you guys know more about this than I do I guess I'll give in but I just want to do the least amount of stretch on the tires & I all ready rolled the back fenders a lil bit.
