largest 18 inch wheels that will allow rotation

hey guys, i just sold my old 18's to get bigger ones. im looking into sizes and offsets that will allow me to rotate from the front to the rear. does anyone have any information to my question? im pretty sure 18x9 with a 50+ offset works yet i cannot find many wheels in that size. im looking for some lightweight wheels don't have to be forged but its a plus. thanks in advance!

18x10" +50 w/ 285/30/18 will allow it, provided you have 2.5" coilovers, trailing arms, and rolled front fenders.

not running coils and dont think i will be. i was thinking about rolling the fenders... how much should i expect to spend on that? i guess i should also state that i JUST want to fit 265's max all around. i would be happy with 255 but 265 would be a little more. the reason i dont want to go to big is that i have the maval rack any other input?

forgot to ask/mention that im looking at some bbs rgr's 18x9 forged but with an 35+offset. i was hoping to run 265/35/r18's all around. yet someone told me that it might not agree up in the front! should i try the 255's all around? im starting to think the 265 might be a little much for my little bitch arms haha

+35 is too low like we told you in the other thread

18x9.5 +45 to +50 will fit with stock suspension......if Tire Rack still has some SSR GT-2s in stock, those would be perfect.
