    Hi all. Looking at getting new wheels and just wanted to check I'm on the right track. I want a flush fit without the need to modify the body at all or mess with camber at all. How's the following?
    F 18x8.5 +15
    R 18X9.5 +32
    Thanks

    Should be ok. I'm not so confident on the fronts but still should work.

    Thanks, yeah wanted a bit higher offset on the fronts but isn't available. Think it should be just ok.

    Both should fit ok & allow you to run properly sized tyres. I run a 9.5" +30 square setup, both your front will sit 2mm further out & the rear will sit 2mm further in than mine.
    I run 275/30 rears with rolled fenders & stock (ish) camber, a 265 would probably get away without the roll, & they sit pretty flush to the rear fenders.

    Fronts have a little more room so yours should be fine.

    How low?

    I'm running a couple of cm lower than lidz and have 8.5+25 with 245 tyres and 9.5+30 with 265 tyres.

    Fronts and rears both rolled and running -2.5 degree camber front and -1 rear.

    Fronts still rub on the inner liner though so your fronts are going to be the main issue. Rears may need a roll if running properly sized tyres.

    Thanks again. Sits on lowered springs but looks similar to Lidz pic
