9X18 all around with offset 35? FD

I'm looking at some wheels in 9X18 al around and with offset 35.

I checked Jimlab's diagram and ideal fitment would be offset 44 front and 31 rear.

What problems can i expect or can I do this with a spacer here and there?

Thx

Neal

Spacer will not help, it will actually make it worst. The offset in the back might fit but the front will defentnetly not fit.

Nope. IDEAL fitment would be +50 offset.....

18x9 +35 offset will fit the rear but not even close on the front.

Wouldn't a +42 or +45 fit all the way around on a 18x9

+45, yes

+42 is definitely pushing the limits up front, at least with the typical loweirng springs.
