Fitment Question..
Sorry if its been answered, I would just like to know if 18X9.5 will be ok on a stock suspension setup, or will I have to fender roll?

Ok let me start over, i see i've wrote things too quickly.
I have a FD and was wondering what kind of offset would i need for 18X8.5 in front, with what tire size, and what offset for 18X9.5 with probly some 265s. I have a stock suspension, but i think the shocks are due so perhaps i could change the springs also.
Any help would really be appreciated...

You guys are aware these questions have been answered several times recently, right?
Anyway, for that staggered setup, you will want a minimum of +38 offset, although +40 to +50 would be better. Best tire sizes are 235/40 and 265/35.

Frank,
For the 18x8.5 you would be ok with a 38mm offset in the front (minimal chance of rubbing). Keeping tires sizes around 225 or 235 would help. I leave it to you to find equivalent diameters and corresponding aspect ratios. Larger overall diameters (over stock dia.) are not recommended.
For the rear in 9.5 inch width, 44mm would work very safely with a 265.
Cheers.
