Default Fitment question with over fenders

Looking for all the over fender guys help. Curious how my new wheels coming in will fit with over fenders in the rear. The rear wheels are 18x11 +39. I'm curious how wide of a tire i could go with with over fenders and if the wheels will poke out past an average over fender or if they will be flush or tucked in.

11j +39? You're talking wayyyyyy past the oem fender, even if it's pulled ~10mm. If you ran something like either the J's or ASM overfenders (which are +25mm) then you could probably make a 285/30/18 work. It would not be "tucked" and you couldn't run the car any lower than zero finger gap. You would also need to trim the inside lip of the overfender as close as you could.

I've seen 11.5j +44 w/ 295's using the ASM style overfender. What you're talking about would be roughly similar.
