-2* camber and a roll depending on tire setup and height, you should be good.

I found some wheels that are 18x9.5 +20 and 18x9.5 +38. How do you think these will look compared? And what tires should i run to look similar to these?
I plan on rolling the fender and if a must, a small pull. Thanks.

What Wheels are these?

I ran 265/35-18 595 RS-Rs on 18x10.5 +38 front/rear last year.

I drove it on the street quite a bit including a road trip up to Portland in Monsoon conditions.

The RS-Rs worked ok on damp pavement since they don't need much heat, but they were horrible over standing water.

I thought I was going to die many times on I5 where I was going well under the speed limit getting into shot into other lanes when I would hit a rutted patch of pavement with deeper standing water or a part of the road with poor drainage.

Luckily there was little traffic since it was late at night so I just stuck to the center lane, went slow and kept a buffer around me for when the car got on plane.

Skinnier tire width would help and brand new versus half dead would help, but they are a summer tire not good over standing water.
