Wheel and tire fitments, help needed please!

[THE_FRS_KID]

EDIT!
Original:
I'm getting Yonaka spec 2 coil overs installed and wanted to know if anyone else has successfully gotten a wider wheel and tire to work with an inch or so drop. I would prefer no rubbing so it doesn't need to be too aggressive, but I would like to fill my fenders and give my car a nicer stance. I'm still in the learning stages so be kind. I would ideally like 18x8.5 in the front with 235/35 and 18x9.5 in the rear with 255x35. The offsets a local garage gave me was 45 all around. It left me with an inch gap in the fender upfront and a half inch in the rear. I am aiming for flush but can't seem to be pointed in the right direction. Please someone guide me!?
Thanks all

New:
Same coil overs and drop but someone suggested 18x8.5 with 245/40 +35 offset up front and 18x9.5 with 265/35 +40 offset in the rear. Anyone have any feed back? To me that sounds like it would be interesting and snug fit.
Thanks.

You will be rubbing a little up front with the tire sizes you picked... Also, the stretch isn't the same on those two combos... If you do 225/35 up front it should clear and have the same look as the back...
Also with wider tires you will need to camber in 1 more negative degree to get the look your asking for... Hope this helps... I have a simili setup on mine.. but I have 19x8/9.5. Tires are 215/35 front and 245/35 rears

I read that wrong I thought you had 18x8 up front, my bad.... 235/35 should be fine on an
8.5 wheel

Sounds great! Which offset are your wheel? How flush are they with the fender? Have any pictures?

You shouldn't rub at all. I'm on 18x8.5 all around with a 225x40 in the front and a 245x35 in the rear. Plus I'm dropped nearly 1.5 inches. The only time I rub is if I hit a big dip in the road, but I'm just rubbing on plastic, so no biggie.

Mine are +40 and I have a couple pics ill grab the link...

Great info! So are you saying I'm better off to stretch a 225 rather than use a 235? How flush are you and with which offsets?

That's my car and how it sits now.

My offset is +42
You can run a 235 and shouldn't have any problems, The reason I went 225 was because the tires I wanted only had that size at the moment.

Awesome! Thanks

Another garage gave me a new suggestion for sizing. Anybody know? Edited up top.

[THE_FRS_KID]

Come on folks!? Anyone tried any of these sizes.
