WA fitment question (dont shoot me)

alright so i know that this will **** the majority of people off but i promise i have done a fair bit of research, anyways im trying to figure out if i put 18-10.5 all around with +22 offset (tires would most likely be 225/35 F and 235/35 R) with rolled fenders what will i rub on and is there spacers i can add to fix it (and yes i know these specs sound slightly ridiculous). thanks in advance to those who are nice enough to share some knowledge with me. UPDATE this is for an FD

FD? I am assuming FD but the gen of the 7 would help.

I'm no expert but the rears with a roll should be fine. You should actually run a 265/35, which is still a stretch, but much safer and not as ridiculous as a 235/35. I ran a 18x10.5 +12 with Nitto 265/35 NT05's on just a roll in the rear no problem and low as hell.

Fronts i'm not sure about but I think you are going to have issues. I am guessing these are wheel you are getting on the cheap and are trying to make them fit. If you are willing to run Shine/Feed front fenders these would be great. Again you should step up the tire size if you could do the Shine fenders. I'm running a 18x10.5 +17 with 285/30's up front with the Shine/Feed fenders. My experience is the fronts are way more sensitive to tire high rather then width.
