Tilt: 18x10 +50 something was the highest i ever heard of - mind you this was only heard. I know Team was fitting some 18x10's in like +48 offset IIRC. I would imagine 18x10.5 +50 would work.

zach: yeah, shaving is where they cut off the inside of the fender instead of rolling it upwards.
some people don't like shaving because then that metal can rust and sometimes it stays sharp which can be bad if your tire rubs.

they both accomplish the same thing, just different ways of going about it.
