You will tuck +63 and +68 with a 18x9. I know I had them. Even with 10 mm you should be able to tuck because I put on a 5 mm spacer on my rear to push it out but I would have been better off with a different offset in the rear (meaning lower) or 10+mm spacers.

Well it really depends upon 3 things. How low you want to go, how stiff the suspension you have and how much negative camber you want to run.
Hell I've had 265 on a 18x9 +55mm that didn't rub at about an 1-1.25" drop with 515KG/mm springs. They were BF KD's too
That said if you're dumped if I remember your car, depending upon camber and if you want to roll the rear fenders you *should* be able to fit a 255 with a +53mm offset. However if you want to be safe go for a 245.

True. He is running Zeal B6s with a 8 F 8R spring rate and thinking of a new wheel VS his Work S1 3 piece. Drop would be around 2.5-3.0 pushing his camber in the rear to -2.5 to -2.6 and his front is like -1.6 or so.
