Question Will 18x9 in front and 18x10 in rear with a +45 offset fit?

I was browsing the forums but I dont see anyone with this type of setup yet. Has anyone out there have any info about this or even if it will work or not?

our stock set up is 18x8 +50mm all around. you are going to lose 14 mm inner clearance up front and 20 mm inner clearance at the rear. don't think they'll fit.

Yes I've run that setup with 245/40/18 and 275/35/18. I had to roll the rear fenders about 3mm but it worked just great. That or just run camber. There's a decent amount of negative camber in the rear from factory anyways.

Thanks, Rishie

I have 45mm offset with 18X7.5 and many other people run with 35 mm offset.

It all depends upon wheel design.
