That is questionable. Depends on the tires you choose. I know +45 9.5 width (RPF1) will fit with a max tire of 265 in the front without removing the fenderliners and needing a roll. So, maybe 255 is the biggest tire you can use up front with the 9.5s up front.

Howard - Did you have to roll the front to fit the 9.5 with the 265's? Would you mind posting a pic of how the fronts fit, do they stick out at all?

Thanks.

I'm pretty sure that car has 9.5 up front

I KNOW that those are the 10.5 +30 in the rear. As you can see it doesn't fit unless you roll the hell out of the stock fenders.

To get the concave look do you have to purchase the 18s? Or would the 17x9.5 +38 be concaved

Neither.

To be concave it only 18".

9.5 and wider is concave.

i.e. The most conservative setup would be

18x9.5 +40 front and rear. Run 255/35/18, you will need to do some minor modifications to the front fender, very minimal.

OR for the PHATNESS: they offer 18x10.5 +30 option for the rear. This will definitely stick out by a half inch so would require some fender pull.

If someone was going for that hella flush look i'd run

18x9.5 +27 and 10.5 +30. You wouldn't need to run crazy camber and it can still look flush with 225/40 and 235/40. That will give a nice stretched look.

I have all three fitments in stock for whatever combo you want to make.
