Yes, it is very possible, infact, so possible! that UncleMax has them on his ride...they look like the 740i sport package rims. Yummy.

Re: 18" x 8.5" front 18" x 10" rear?
unclemax has the setup you want. I dont know how wide his rears are but they are pretty wide trust me on that. So look his name up on the org and look at his specs on his wheels.
One more thing now we all know our cars are not rearwheel drive!! He just wants the nice deep dish look, the Japaneese look!!The deep pocket look!!
Rear tires I believe 265 or 255/35 18

I believe that's similar to the combination UncleMax has on his car, but...
don't use 225-35's on the front. Way too low profile. Try 245-40's.
That having been said, your car will handle worse with this combination. By putting wider tires on the back, you're adding traction to the rear tires. This increases understeer. It may look cool, but it is the wrong thing to do on a front-heavy front wheel drive car.
Have you considered 245-40-18's all around?

if you need a bigger size than go with 235. just trying to help.
i love that wide look.

i would also get this set up in a 2pc or 3pc wheel. a 1pc wheel would be very heavy.
