Default Aggressive offsets

What's the lowest offset with standard arches ?

I've looked through the hellaflush thread but I'm confused.

I don't want to roll my arches.

I do want to lower it a bit to close the gap up a tad but want to get the arches more flush without spacers.

I wouldnt go any wider than 8" on the front on a +55 and 9" rear on a +55 if you dont want arch work.

or have thinner wheels and lower offsets.

That sounds about right. I've got a set of 18s which are +28 front and +30 rear and they're 25mm clear at the rear, 18 ish clear at the front - so I will need arch extensions.

Well I knew the 18x9 won't work on a et25

So asking about importing a staggered set with a

18x8 et40 front
And a
18x9 et45 rear

So even that won't work with standard arches and more camber I'm guessing
