Default CONSENSUS on 18" staggered set-up

Hey Guys:

I came across a set of staggered 18" wheels which I really like, however, it doesn't come in .5" width increment.

Which of the following would be the most ideal staggered 18" set-up? I definitely need your expertise.

1. F: 18 X 8.0 +50ET (225/40/18)
R: 18 X 9.0 +55ET (255/35/18)

OR

2. F: 18 X 8.0 +50ET (225/40/18)
R: 18 X 10.0 +62ET (265? 275?)

Appreciate your guidance.

Raleigh

Alot of aftermarkets arent staggered "exactly" like oem, but will be fine. Either of those setups would work but I'd probably pick the 18x9 +55 in the rear also just to be on the safe side. Mine are 18x8f, 18x9r ...both +50

I would agree. To be safe the 18X9 would be the way to go.
