FD offset experts please help.(18X10.5 with eibach spring)
Please help me with the correct offset for these wheel size for my FD ( without rolling any fenders)
18X9 or 18X9.5 FRONT
18X10 or 18X10.5 REAR.
My car is LOWERED with Eibach springs (1 inch). The frond has 13-inch rotor and rear has M2 trailing arm.
I have search buy guys who have these size did not stated that whether or not they have lowered their car.
Thanks

Just stick with the proven fitments:
18x9 +45 to +50 offset up front with 255/35s
18x10 +50 offset in back with 285/30
You may still rub since Eibach's lower your car an 1-inch without significantly higher spring rates. You may want to run slightly more camber, run stiffer shocks, run larger anti-roll bars, etc., but you'll probably be OK as is.

Otherwise rynberg is spot on with 45-mm offset for 9 x 18. If 9.5 x 18, you'll need 50-mm offset front. You guys should have this memorized by now. Did I mention this question comes up OFTEN?

Regardless, the tires would be 285/30-18 Hoosier R3S03s in back on 10.5 x 18, 45-mm offset Volk CE28Ns. The R3S03s in 285/30-18 are 24.5 inches in overall diameter (~0.5 inch shorter than stock), so I didn't think I'd need to roll rear fenderlips?
With road tires in 295/30-18 on 10.5 x 18, 45-mm offset, Rishie is probably right--rear fenderlip rolling would be a prudent move to avoid paint problems.
