Aggressive offset wheels

Hey I've searched the forum for hours and can't find a setup that I am interested in, it is certainly an aggressive setup and it's mostly for the stance look and show. Has anyone fit 18x9.5 +10 front and 18x11 +8 in the rear in their FD. I know fender rolling and pulling is a must. I'll be using buddy club coilovers (feel free to debate the coils) I am looking for the lowest possible stance I can have. Any suggestions? Experience? Camber kit? I'd like to know thanks mates

18x 8.5 225/35/18
18x10 265/3518 +25 all around. Rolled fenders

275 is duable with pulled fenders.

Pick a tire size you plan on running first and google is your friend ..

Check the thread out below, and hit up a wheel calculator to see if your offsets and tires work with how much fender roll/stretch you want to do.

A. I thought the whole modus operendi with the stretched crowd was to just buy whatever wheels you like and figure out how to fit the car around them later.

B. 225/30 on an 11" wheel? No comment on stretching generally, but I'm not sure there's even enough rubber there to touch the rim beads on either side.

C. Why are you using a shorter (30) tire on the rear with the same diameter wheels?

The goal is to go as low as possible, stretched tires helps camber and low profile tires help it be lower
