I want none to minimum fenders work if possible. Maybe just a roll if I have to. So what would be my best option?

18x9.5 +38 with 255/35 (or could be 265/35)
18x10 +35 with 255/35

BTW, my car is very lowered on coilovers.

The 9.5's will fit with a roll...depending on tires.... maybe even fit with no adjustments

The 10's will need more of a roll...

I have the 18x9.5 +38 with 255s (really 245s with 5mm spacer) and it will work without a roll. It is super close though. I'm unsure of how much camber I have unfortunately. 18x10 +35 will look good too but definitely require fender roll.

ooOOoOoOO - 18x10 +35? sounds like Advan RZ's?? (or rota grids)

+1 on what the guys have already said. The fronts will work w/a roll but you'll need some extra work for the rears to fit. Good news is someone has already tread that path for you (tilt) and it'll work if you make it.

Weds fails at offsets though, its either +35 or +10 for the tc105n; no +25 or anything

9.5 +35 comes so close to flush - that extra 1/2 inch would probably do the trick

Yes they will fit. Tire size is a little off but nothing horrible.

depends on how wide of tires you want in the back. If you run 245's you can get away with +35 or higher. 275's +40 or higher

Yes it will fit fine. 255/40 are probably as wide as you need to go, but you could go even wider than that if you wanted for some reason.

I was told that that's a fwd offset so it wouldn't work. With that off set n tire size how funny would it look? I don't want to spent 1k n have it look horrible. Thanks guys

Whoever told you that is a moron. They will look fine, but wont quite fill out the fender. If possible get a +30 offset.

haha don't tell him he's a moron, just explain to him that offset has nothing to with whether a car is fwd or rwd. tell him to google "what is wheel offset" and he will see
