Already answered this one via PM, but I'll reply here for anyone else with the same question. With an 18x9.5 +45 and a 255/40/18, at stock ride height, you will not need to roll your fenders. You may need to add some negative camber, but I'm pretty sure stock camber would be okay.

From the looks of my rims even (9.5 +38), I would say a 255/40/18 would work and I'm lowered on stock alignment specs.

Looks good. I like unique. I have yet to see any pics of the wheels I just ordered but I'm glad I haven't!

Yes, but it will be a shame after all the time I spent drawing those RPF1's...
