I feel like I've searched this entire thread but still would like confirmation on my understanding before I can commit to a direction on wheels & suspension...

Assuming a square setup:

1) 18x9.5 +38 on 245/40/18 w/ eibach sportlines will fit w/out rubbing. No room for camber adjustment due to stock perch. No camber bolts needed to remove natural camber from lowering. Coilovers required to fix poke.

2) 18x8.5 +35 on 235/40/18 w/ eibach sportlines will fit w/out rubbing. Camber bolts optional.

3) 17x9 +42 on 245/40/17 w/ eibach sportlines will fit w/out rubbing. Very little room for camber adjustment due to stock perch.

4) 17x9 +35 on 245/40/17 w/ eibach sportlines will fit w/out rubbing. Camber bolts required to fix poke.

5) Coilovers magically make everything listed above fit.

Please correct me if I'm wrong about any of this - I've read a lot of conflicting information across multiple threads to get to this point
