Ok so I'm looking into buying some Volks thier 18x9.5 +40 18x8.5 +40. But the issue is thier 5x114. So I know I will have to run adapters I know theirs some 10mm ones but don't know if I will be able to run with that with out any other modifications don't want to roll, pull etc fenders and will be dropped about 1.5 inces. Any help or advice will help thanks.

seems difficult, they dont make that wheel in a 5x100? what about a smaller width 9.5 is monster sized wheel lol

Sorry forgot to mention that thier used and at a good price that's why I'm considering buying. I know people on here have ran 9.5 in the rear but not with conversions.

8.5 +30 front and 9.5 +30 rear effective offset after adapters is a little aggressive especially in the rear. I would just buy cheaper wheels in the correct sizes, you are going to be spending a few hundred dollars for quality adapters also.
