offsets and spacers
I need a 10 +35, but the rim
I want is only in 10 +30, or 9.5 +30.
If the 10+35 is flush, how far out would a +30 stick, or should I just use 9.5 +30 and a spacer to make up the diff from the 10 +35 I want¿
Same goes for front, need 9.5 +27, only have 9.5 +30. Use a spacer to make it flush?
Not sure how bad the 3 to 5 mm offset will actually affect the fit
Btw, these are in 18s

It will give me an "idea" of what the difference between +30 and +35 I guess. I was just wondering from people's experience, does +.05 make a visually noticeable difference on their cars.

5mm is just short of 0.25in. visually...... what you have laid out here will be imperceptible. the tire will be more of a factor in this situation than anything. the specs you laid out vs what you want are a perfect fit. the fitment difference between a +30 and +35 is nothing. the fit difference between a +27 and a +30 is less than nothing. its negative nothing.

Looks usefully, except, I have stock rims and Shine widebody front fenders, so it won't work up front.

the rear going from 26mm to 14mm, is really subtle. the fit is more OE, but i think if i had the 26mm spacer on one side and the 14mm spacer on the other and brought it to a car show i'm not sure anyone would notice

so it could make a difference, but it might not. on mine i changed the adaptors from 13mm in the front and 26mm in the rear to 14mm all the way around. 1mm in the front wasn't noticeable at all (is a 1mm wheel spacer the most JDM part?)
the rear going from 26mm to 14mm, is really subtle. the fit is more OE, but i think if i had the 26mm spacer on one side and the 14mm spacer on the other and brought it to a car show i'm not sure anyone would notice

So, ended up ordering 18s, 9.5 +30 front, 10 +30 rear.
Stock rear fender, Shine front fenders. I should be able to get a good sized grippy tire with enough sidewall to be comfortable correct? Stock brakes, no BBK to work around.
Fortune Auto Coilovers. Nothing rolled, yet, see if I need it.
Think that's all required info.
I'll throw a spacer in to get it flush flush if needed

too late I guess, but a 9.5 +30 has approx. the same outer lip position as a 10 +35; 5mm further offset outward, but 1/4" (6.35mm) less wheel width on the outside, or more precisely; 1.35mm difference.
A 10 +30 obviously has the same width wheel sitting 5mm further outboard than a 10 +35. So if you want the 9.5 +30 to be at the same outer wheel lip position from the hub as the 10 + 30 you will need to put a 1/4" spacer on the 9.5" wheel. Because they have the same 30mm offset, but 10" - 9.5" = 0.5", but this is split between both wheel lip positions (divide by 2) = 1/4" lip position difference towards the wheel hub on both the inside and the outside for the 9.5" wheel.
