the 18x9.75 +20 has more concavity, but is only offered in the one offset.

there are people running an 18x9.75 +20 setup all around, and it looks pretty sick, but you will need to stretch and camber and probably do a little fender pulling to keep it from rubbing.

i ordered 18x8.75 +20, with 225/40/18 front and rear, and will mount those up and take some pics for you asap. i am expecting poke, but the stretch and a little camber should clear me fine.

most people seem to be getting the 18x8.75 +35 all around because it looks flush and doesn't require much stretch or camber. since these are just as concave as the +20, then either one you have the same look concave-wise.



for reference:
18X9.75 +20 all around


18x8.75 +35 front and +20 rear (same face front and back)
Thanks!!

I was gonna get 235 but there's actually not that good of enough selection of tires that size. I would personally go with 225

I'm on XXR 527 18x8.75 with 245/35/18 all around, droped about 1" on Eibach Pro-Kit. No fenderwork needed, no rubbing at all. See My Carjournal (link in my Signature) from Page 5 for pictures

How much poke would there be if i ran 18x8.75 +20 in the rear with Tien H-Tech's? And if i were to slap in some coilovers to the car + LCA's, how much camber would i need to do to make it flush with the fender? Is the 8.75 +35 perfectly flush with the rear fender? Coz i know the fronts poke out, but i can just tuck it with camber. I really dont want to adjust camber in the rear for performance purposes.
