Will It Fit Thread

It's going to be really close in the rear, it may come down to the camber setting.
As shown with pics in the 10.5" wheel thread, the top of the wheel gains camber and tilts in as the suspension is compressed.
So it can be outside some and still clear, but there's a limit and you're right there in the red zone

Well.. It was killing me so of course I had to do a complete test fit at 10:00 at night and take it for a spin. There are these bumps and dips on the street near me and I didnt hear any rubbing going over those and that was on the softest setting.
I am sure I wont have any issues when it's one out.
Thankx for the comments.

make sure to find an open parking lot and turn the wheel all the way to the left. make a circle slowly. do the same to the right. if your not rubbing you should be ok.
If you are using stiff springs (coilovers)... having people in the car wont make much of a difference.

I'm looking at the same width and offset on all for corners. What offset would be better to go with up front with 9's?

i ran a 17X9 +40 with 255/40 tire on all 4 - car was dropped an inch... had no rubbing issues and plenty of room.
That being said... i think even your most aggressive of the 4 options (18X9 +38 245/40/18) will be ok on all 4 corners

dunlop direzzas - was cheap, lasted long time, less grip than other performance tires but i never raced on 19s so i didnt care. It was enough grip to handle upwards of 275 to 300 whp for daily driving without any issues tho.

I believe they wil both fit, but 275 is on the borderline, some people run them being able o fit, some need fenders rolled/shaved, others need a crazy cambers, and others still rub, but I am pretty sure the 265 will clear without any problems.

+26 is too low... unless u dont mind them sticking slightly out from your fender well. its up to you. if you plan on dropping the car with that setup... will need a fender roll... garanz

how about:
17"x10" +35 5zigen fn01r-c with falken rt-615 255/40/r17 all around
assuming that it fits on stock height, how much can i drop the car without rubbing?
i will probably have to roll fenders but even so will it fit?

If i want the rear wheels to be flush with the fenders should i go with a +35 offset? I want to run 265 tires so my setup will be 18x9 +35 and 265's all around... Im pretty sure ill have to roll my fenders, but how much does this cost?
