Fender work.
How much fender work would be required to run a set of wheels with these offsets.
Front: 18x8.5+48
Rear: 18x9.5+42
A local guy is selling a set of wheels for a steal of a price, and if i dont have to pull fenders and get away with a roll ill pick them up.

alright perfect. you think i wont need to pull at all? I have a fender roller and a heat gun, so I can easily roll the fenders just dont want to do body work to fit a set of wheels.

Thanks for the offer Jim, but a cousin works at discount tire so I get tires for cost.
I guess my real question should have been.. What is the lowest offset you can run on rolled fenders with about negative 3-4 camber all around?

42+ in the rear...
i am runing 45+ in the rear i rolled my fenders and put in 3deg camber in the rear and that wasnt enough, i had to pull my fenders.
im runing a 18x9 in the rear with a 255/35 tire.

Would it rub with smaller tires? like a 235 40? I dont track my car or plan on doing so. Stretched tires dont bother me either.
but i suggest u get 255 tires.. cuz will give u better performance and more meat on the side aswell..
as for the strech, u got to be very care full when u park..

I dont ever plan on tracking this vehicle. So running a fat tire in the rear doesnt do much for me. Maybe in the future I will get into that, but I can adjust accordingly.
I come from the VW world where stretch like this is almost the norm. So Im not scared about curbing my wheels or anything.
