Lowest possible offset for 18x9.5? and 255's?

+30 is the on 225's shown here: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=11258

+25 on 225's shown here: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=17083

I saw Jive Turkey's car and he's running 265's on a +40 so I'm hoping maybe I could squeeze a 255 +28 in there. His car is here: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=31920

I would like to run 255 on an 18x9.5 +28 with as little camber as possible. I also do not want to slam the car. Just drop it enough to make the wheels fit properly.

Could I make this fit?

Will the front have way too much poke if I don't use a silly amount of negative camber?

With a mild drop and near to stock camber the wheels will poke out infront about 1 - 1.5cm, and rear about 1cm.

If you are not going for a hellaflush look you should look for something around +40 when using an 9.5" wheel

@Killerbee no offense, your fitment advice is waaaay off. 9.5 +40 is EXTREMELY mild fitment and very functional
I know,thats why I wrote "if you are NOT going for a hellaflush look"

And 9.5 with +40 and 1" lowered and almost no camber is about flush/just poking out 2-3mm, so dont see why this is an extremly mild fitment? (read his post, he wrote not slam, no crazy camber)
