hey guys, I was wondering if this setup will cause any issues with rolled and pulled fenders:

18x9 +35 up front (245's)
18x10.5 +20 in the rear(275/285's)

I really want to get 18x10.5 +20 all around, but I don't know if the front fenders will allow me to. :/

You will encounter rubbing up front with 18x10.5 +20 upfront with those tire sizes and only a roll, you'd need a pretty good pull, run stretched tires and camber to 18x10.5 +20 upfront.... here was my set-up a few years back: 19x9.5 +23 235/35/19 & 19x10.5 +24 265/35/19....

I am looking at a pair of XXR 502's and wondering if these would work with the offset... not really too sure when it comes to staggered wheels and offsets so any info could help.18x7.5 +42 for front and 18x8.5 +35 for rears would work without issues besides rolling fenders?

supraholic you think 18x10+20 in fronts with slightly pulled and rolled fenders will fit and 18x10.5 +20 with rolled and flared rear fenders will work?

yes it will but will have to run stretched tires 225/35/19 (a brand that can be stretched) & 255/35/19.

I assumed u meant 18's. But that's Kool thanks for the info. I will do some research and find the best tire brand that can stretch well in my given application

ah nicee i'm using tt wheels with spacers as well

i'm running 245/45's up front with a 25mm spacer with a slight roll i still have to lower it a bit more. I was hoping it'd be a little more flush but i dont want to run anything bigger then a 25mm spacer so i'm pretty happy with the results

and 275/40's in the rear i have another pair of 25mm spacers on the way with some fender rolling work on the way as well;)



sick man... thats what ima do to my ride, what kind of spacers did you use? does type matter?

Anyone know if there was ever a supra to look good with Watanabe's?

Yes, they look great
p1643429_1.jpg
not my car don't know the sizes


On a side note I want a similar wheel setup to this
p1643429_2.jpg


I'm thinking ssr sp1 professor, or work meisters in 17x10 -8 offset in the rear, I know I'll have to roll fenders but will it work without serious pulling?

8" +20mm? I suggest between 215 and 235 for the front, it all depends on tire brand (actual width of tire), camber, roll/pull, ride height, etc. Should have no issues with any 255 for the rear, more if your driving a monster truck or rolled/camber.

Also good luck with 10" -8, I had 275/11" +10 which is -5mm in and that was max unless you run more camber and even more stretch.
Also the red 70 with Watanabe's is widebody, that's why they look so good.
