Will These Fit?

Wondering if anyone has any experience with this set up:

18x8.5 +30 Front, 18x9.5 +35 rear
225/40/18 and 255/35/18 for tires, respectively.

I was wondering if there was any rubbing with this setup, or if the fender needs to be rolled.

I know that this setup:

18x8.5 +35 F, 18x9.5 +38 R needs no fender mods and have no rubbing (from the wheel directory posts).

(lowered on eibach pro kit)

Thanks <3

8.5 + 30 will have some poke up front unless you're running some negative camber. Look at 9" +35 wheels, there's lots of pictures in the wheel directory. You'll have 1.4mm less poke than 9" +35, but you'll definitely still have some poke.

it's just basic math... the only thing is you have to know where to subtract/add from and how much.

if you're a visual person and hate math, then this is a thread sticky at the top that shows you exactly what you need to know and see: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=25177

use the link in first post to test different fitments for our car. the columns on both sides are already default to our stock fitment and sizing, so you can keep one side stock and the other for the "new" sizes to compare side-by-side

[edit] by the way, the above link is good to show for fender clearance. for suspension clearance, that's just some math since i dont know any visual link/page to show that. i have 17x9 +38 and when i was on just springs/shocks, i had like 3mm clearance from the spring perch. so with 8.0" width and a lower +30 offset, you'll have way more than enough clearance on the inside, and even more if you switch to adjustable coilovers.
