Anyone in the Bay area with some 18x9.5 wheels possibly et30-40 on 265 tires? Please help me out and let me test fit them! Id like to see if I can fit them in the front . Ill buy dinner or lunch heh...

Wondering if i can jump up a size on my current 18x9.0 wheels with 265s.

+33 is the highest offset u can run on a 9.5" before it hits the stock strut in the front. and if u do run that...265 is too fat to run. it will hit the strut!!

it depends on your suspension and I was planning to run spacers. Im just not sure the exact offset needed to make this work hence, why I would like to test fit...

^^ i understand... As for a different suspension set-up, assuming u're running coilovers.. it's obviously gonna be a fatter shaft and gonna be less clearance. And running a spacer, it's gonna poke up the fender a good amount. A 9.5" +22 is gonna be pretty aggressive already, but would also need to run a 235 or smaller tire to clear. Keep in mind that this is just my opinion, and wanted to share. good luck tho, and keep us posted

BTW, here's my car with a 18x10 +24 (approx 2mm away from the front strut) with a 225/40 rubber
