Sorry 18x9.5 +40. They only sell them in 5x120 but I can custom order 5x114.3. So 18x9.5 +40 will look legit? I just have my mind set, I wish they were 18x9 +30.
Why the hell don't these wheel sites let you search by exact size and offset?

Well I went through about 60 or so pages, so I found most of what I need. But I have a few other questions. Im still debating whether I want staggered or 9.5 all around.
Btw, I've been looking at Rota's P-45Rs
2. Is the car not stock height?
S-Techs and stock struts
3. Have the fenders been modified in any way?
No, Dosent matter as long as its minor.
4. Please state wheel width, offset, and diameter.
F - 18x8.5 +35
R - 18x9.5 +35 ???
5. Please state the proposed tire width and profile.
F - 245/40 ???
R - 265/35 ???
Thanks

FWIW when I had ms springs and koni struts I rubbed through the plastic a little in the rear with 9.5 +33 and 245s. I couldnt feel it but I could smell it after driving through a parking garage (weight transferred to the rear on inclines). 265s might not need the fenders rolled but I bet it's close.

The wheels are only for Bimmers and Mercs (5x112 & 5x120 I believe). I would be paying extra (very little though) for them to redrill the 5x112 and increase the center bore to 67.1. But the wheels only come in 18x8.5 +35 and 18x9.5 +40. I am somewhat worried about not being totally happy but at the same time I am totally comfortable running spacers and 10mm spacers would make the 18x9.5 +40's look sick.
Now, my question is would a 245/40-18 on the 9.5" be such a stretch that it would affect the performance of the tire? Th reason I ask is that i just purchased a set 245/40-18's last weekend, I'd like to use them but if the stretch is too much, I would just suck it up and get some 255's or 265's.

Would pictures of 18x9.5 +33/+28 with 245/40 suit you? http://www.flickr.com/photos/j863562...7623744260352/ It's not a stretch if it meets the tire manufacturer's wheel sizing IMO. I have Nitto Invo and I think they run slightly wider than your average 245.
http://www.flickr.com/photos/j863562...7611482633008/ This is older and when I had the MS springs/Koni combo and no spacers. 9.5 +38 all around
I only have these tires because I was in a similar situation to you. I wish they made a 265 with the height of the 275/35 but the little bit of difference in height would make me scrape going into my garage believe it or not. My plan is to get some 10 or 10.5 wide wheels sometime and run 275s.
