wheel fitment?
i was thinking of getting these wheels here are some details:
Front: 18x8.5, +38mm offset, 245/40-18
Rear:18x9.5 , +45mm offset, 265/35-18
my question is will these fit with out any fender modifications or without removing the fender plastic shield in the front? and what would it look like in the front and rear will they be flush with the body or inside or sticking out? here are some pics for you. say i drop it like 1.5 inches would they still fit and not rub anything?

You'll be safe with that offset and wheel size I am sure BUT, the rears are going to be stuck a little 'inwards' for my liking. To get flush, you'll need to do a +30 to +38 offset. The only problem with that is that you may need to roll the rear fenders a bit if your car is getting lowered.
I really like those wheels though. Fat lip and basic 5-spoke make it pretty damn hot IMO as long as it stays that finish. Personally, I would go for 19's, +35 rear with rolled fenders and +38 for the fronts (which won't need a roll). Go big or go home right?
Good luck and post pics once you get them on !
