18x9.5 +15 offset..5.5gen

contemplating some 18x9.5 rims with a +15 offset running 235/40/18 tire..anyone running a rim of similar size on a 5.5 gen. I also have h-tech's/Illuminas.

I'm running close in terms of width, but that's a hell of an offset. You will be pokemon out the rears for sure.

No way +15 is gonna work I mean 5th gens are a bit wider but I had +20 on my 4th gen and they stuck out hella and now same wheel with a +30 it still poken out. You'll have to get a serious pull then rolled.

Nevermind the pull and roll, you will need Fender Flares.

way too aggressive. would need 215's, roll and a mild drop.... I wouldnt bother with it mainly because its too narrow for that offset. same amount of poke on a 10.5 or 11" is worth the work

na, still haven't decided yet..we did come across some 19x9's with a +26 offset, but i still think that may be a bit low and i don't really want 19's..
