"rears are Volk GT-U, 18x10, +43mm with Toyo R888 305/35s, shaved and heat cycled. ride height is just eibach pro kit and tokico illumina II, nothing aggressive. the rears need to be rolled still. they are about 10mm away frorm tucking."

same setup you're looking at but with your desired offset your wheels would stick out about 19mm or 3/4 of an inch farther out than his

I want to get a new set of wheels.
Im aiming for 10.5 all around with 265/40/18.
Not sure on the offset because im not too familiar with offsets, i want to sit flush on lowering springs.
Currently have 10.5 in the rear with i believe +25 and 245/40 i think...i already rub when i hit bumps or dips on the freeway,(fenders havent been rolled)..so i know i can run 255 BUT my wheels stick out.
So what offset will sit nice?
I dont want to order wheels and tires that stick out.
thanks in advance.
I saw someone post a soapra with the fitment i want but he didnt post specs

Yes on the fronts, not sure about the rears. I've ran 18x9.5 +35 all around with 275/35, on Tokico Blue/Eibach Pro. You'll need a roll though.

I'm running 18x10.5 +22 in the rear with 265/35. My fenders are rolled and I'm on coils though. Going for 275/35 on my next set of tires. I'll try to find my picture. Not too sure for the fronts though.

I find that excessive without a roll/pull. XXR seems to be limited in their offsets

Here is a pic from another angle. I like the poke, it looks great in person and I prefer to not roll or pull fenders if I don't have too. If I was on coilovers I would def need a roll

My comment is basically that I had wheels that did that on a car about 30 years ago. They looked good, as do yours, but the quarter panel lip was pretty damaged from those "oh shit" bumps I hit over time. Yours look to be in excellent shape so that would worry me. other than that, they do look great.

Having a hard time finding an answer. Want to get XXR 968's in 18x10.5 +20 for the rear and 18x9 +20 in the front. I think the rear will fit with a 265, but I'm not sure about the front. Seems like nobody runs a 9" +20.

My 9.5" is +38 in the rear. Ideally you would want +42 to + 45 offset for 10" I believe.
Most of the 10's I see stick out too far.

I'm not perfectly savvy on this yet, but I'm starting to figure it out. Still not sure what max inner space is before I hit suspension, though.

I'm not too concerned about them sticking out to far. Just wondering how far the fronts will stick out.

Your fronts will stick out 8mm less than my front and the rear will stick out 2mm less than my rear setup above. Your front setup will look much more flush with the fender than your rears will especially with 265's

Also note that you will have less INNER clearance as well.

the inner clearance shouldnt be much of any issue.

265 will be somewhat stretched on a 10.5 but with +20 is shouldnt rub with a roll.

245-255 would fit goo don front

Hey guys been thinking of gettng new tires right now and was wondering what size in should get<br />
Specs: <br />
Now-17x9.5+12 all around w/ 1-1.25 inch spacers 215/45 r17<br />
New- removing spacers, prefer some tires that are low profile, no real extreme stretch, would these work?<br />

No spacers... Your already way too far out (unless my old man brain has wandered too far).

Your offset shout be around +38 - +45. Those tires should be 255/35 r17. You could use 45, but you said low profile.

Are you running spacers already with those rims? If so, would really like a pic.

+38-+45 is pretty high

Depending on width +25 is flush with fenders.

With 9.5 +12 and inch spacer your wheels going be inch inch and a half out past the fenders.

Also personally 40 hight is too tall. I prefer 35 Tho 40 would be fine. I wouldn't use the 45 tho.
