18x9.5 +45 fitment

Need some help, was just wondering is 18x9.5 +45 will have any fitment issues stock and/or dropped on springs 1 inch.

What else would i need to adjust to make these work if there are fitment issues.
Thanks

You should not have any fitment issues at all. However what size tires do you plan on running?

thinking 255/35, but iv read after that for the 57extremes 18x9.5 +40 all around will create issues in the front with the struts, wouldnt +45 (ssr gtv02) make it worse?

You will not be able to fit them without spacers or coilovers (smaller diameter spring). If you want a 9.5" you will need a +38 minimum.

It won't fit on stock suspension or lowering springs. We've test fitted both setups +40 and +45.

I just got 4 sets of 57xtreme in-stock yesterday and Im trying to move my last set of HKS Hypermax IV GT coilovers. Pm me and let see if we can make it work for you and eliminate all fitment issues you think you may have.

Don't mean to thread jack but would it fit with 18x9.5 35offset .. 235/35 or 245/35 tire... Looking at a pair of varrstoen es1s with eibach pro kit springs

Those will clear the struts. Only issue is a good amount of poke in the front.
