anyone with the17x9.5 +38? as shown on enkeis sizing chart?
Edit, well maybe that or +40, but I imagine the 2mm doesn't really change a whole lot.

Ah yes, I remember these...
I had the Togue Factory limited edition Matte Black NT03+M 18x9.5 +27 with 265/35/18 Star Specs. 10mm spacer front (to clear the calipers by 1-2mm), 5 mm spacer rear (so it doesn't look sunken), hubcentric rings, and I had to get longer wheel studs in the front. Fenders rolled. Will miss these very much. The center caps were screwed on. Volk lug nuts. Waited like 7-8 months for these in a group buy.
Just got done installing them.
Adjusted coilovers a couple more times and an alignment (front would rub on full lock on the inside fender well just because of the tire width and I wanted to keep my fender liner lol). Don't say more low...not my thing if it impacted the suspension geometry, that's the lowest I could go (I even had the whiteline roll center kit so the control arm would stay parallel to the ground after lowering the car).
How I wish these would easily fit on an S2K with just fender roll/flare on 265s. By far my favorite rims ever.

Hey guys, I'm in the market for a set of wheels and the look of the 18*9.5 +40 is just too appealing. However, the fitment is in they grey area of desirable. I'm a noob when it comes to wheels... 
I have an 05 ap2 lowered on eibach springs so I'm wondering what exactly needs to be done for these wheels to sit nice without rubbing. Everything else stock on the car.

rears: rolled fenders with tab relocate and at least -2 camber to fit
fronts: rolled, pulled and flared a little (depending on how you want it to look and tire size), trim the liner, and again at least -2 camber.
