For the setup the car won't be slammed low and I will have 3.5 degrees camber. I don't want the tire to look stretched either. any advice is appreciated thanks.
I'll be running R888 18x9.5 front with 245/40, and rear 10.5 with 285/35. Since I have to get PCD adapters to fit my 5x114.3 wheels, I'm still unsure what offsets to go with though. Thinking about -5 front and -15 rear?

Front will probably have a slight stretch, but still look meaty since R888 are fat tires, and 40 profile. Rears will be pretty square, so meaty as well.

18x10.5 -13 Front
18x11.5 -26 Rear
Tires will be stretched accordingly. Hoping not massive camber, like -3 to -5 F/R. On V1 fenders, and coilovers as low as will allow with this fitment. I want flush as can be, or maybe a very slight poke. According to calculators, the rear seems totally fine, but it's the front I'm not 100% on. What do you guys think?

so I plan on going wheels first before fenders. Will a 18x10 -7 front and 18x11 -25-30 rub when turning on the stock fenders? I know this sounds stupid and everything should be done at once but is this a bad idea?

Toyota r888 275/35/18 on 18x10.5 +30 squared.
I have a 25mm spacer on the rear and a 22mm spacer on the front.

Rear sits perfect. Couldn't be happier about that. The front rubs a ton. Barely can turn without the tire crushing the fender liner. Any suggestions for tires sizes up front to prevent rubbing in front and behind the face of the tire?
It's practically touching the front bumper as you can see from the last picture

Cut the fender liner and bumper? Those tires are huge though. If you don't want to run stretched then you'll just have to adjust other things like ride height, caster, camber, etc.

That will poke like crazy on stock fenders. The recommendation is to get the wheels + kit and then install at the same time. So you can adjust camber and make sure everything fits nicely.

I mean you could get the wheels on stock fenders, but you would have to run stock height so they dont hit your fenders lol. What kind of wheels were you looking at? Maybe I can help?

What the fuck

First the guy asking if 17x8 +40 is a good fit for RB fenders, now someone who wants to fit 18x11 -30 without a kit... I've seen it all!

Given thick enough spacers (i guess, 500mm should do), you can forget about rubbing issues with any wheel! Well .. maybe steering angle in front also should be limited, but that's minor issue

What are your camber settings? Looks like more camber to tuck under fender, as previously mentioned, you need to make modifications to the rest of the car to fit wide tires on a rocket bunny. Just the unfortunate side effect. Mainly cutting bumper, and knocking down the frame extension at the rear of the fender well.

I am showing a 18x10.5 et10 should be flush which is what I am going to shoot for. Then clearance the car for a 285 and eventually a 315.
