i hear what you're saying RE-M. i think that is a great idea and is kinda going along with with what TonyStarkz was saying. maybe we can start posting with if it rubs/clears etc with certain offsets/sizes/tire sizes.

Very nice. Is that a burnout kit?

Do you get rubbing?

18x9.5 + 22 with 255/35/18 - same as above but must remove front wheel liner unless you don't care
This is the exact setup i plan on running, except with shine's feed fenders. Thanks for confirming that the size fits!

Nice wheels. Always love these wheels. Where you from DeeSan? You should come to our meet.

Here is my FD with CCW Classic 18x10 all around. Nothing extreme.

anyone have pictures of the following set up? i went through 35 pages and i didn't see what i was looking for

18x9.5 with an offset in the 30's-40's, with a 225/40/18 tire size

stock front fenders and rear quarter panels, no flares, let me know if you need to roll the fenders and how much camber

There is no need to run that small of a tire of a 18x9.5 if your offset is in the high 30s or 40s. You can run either a 255/35 or 265/35. I was running 18x9.5 +45 SSR GT2s with 265/35r18 with no issues. Front could use a roll just for safety, rear has tons of room. If your offset is in the 35 range Id go with the 255s up front, as they are not only smaller but shorter, allowing safer clearance.

the reason i was asking is because there is a local STI guy selling his set of enkei wheels for dirt cheap with 90% tires, and those are the tire size, i was planning on using them until they run out before i buy 265/35/18's
