Well, did a quick wash on the car on Friday and decided to snap some pics with my cellphone, sorry for the shitty quality angles, will do better next time...
Specs are:
Fronts 18 x 9 +25 with 255\35R18
Rears 18 x 10 +40 with 295\30R18
BBS Impul M1 wheels with clearcoat removed from lips and hand polished.
Fenders are rolled carefully to ensure there's as little pull as possible as not to ruin the stock body lines.
Ideally I think I can fit a 11" + 40mm setup in the back and will look nicer with the 295's instead of the 10" setup I have.

That being said, the fronts rub, but only on the inner fender liner, so when I have a passenger that's close to or over 200lbs in the car with me, I get a slight rubbing sound under really bad dips on the roads (I'm 210lbs myself).
However when I check all 4 tires, there is ZERO signs of rubbage on the outside of the tires on all corners.
I have yet to take the rear wheels off and check if there's evidence of contact on the inside edges of the tires.
Keep in mind, my rear setup has 187.5mm backspace (10" with +40 on a 295 tire) ...
Guys run a rear setup that has 192.5mm backspace (10" with +50 on a 285 tire) ...
So I'm thinking I should be okay in regards to backspace clearance, however a visual check will confirm this ...
Oh, and I lied about the "completely stock" ... I'm on TEIN HA Coilovers and ride height is set at 25" on all corners.

I rolled the fenders, but not completely flat, more like a V shape ... other than that, its a completely stock setup, and no, there's no rubbing with me driving and going through all the dips on the road\highways.

I am doing an 18x11.5 wheel with a +42mm offset, (my project mu rotors bring the wheel out 1mm) with an effective offset of +41mm. I am going to run 295/30/18 all around front and rear. The hub inward measurement is 1.46MM inward from his set up. I might need a small shim in the rear to kick the wheel out to prevent hitting the trailing arm. front should be ok. We'll see.
