With proper coilovers and wheel offset, the 285's will not rub at all. They are actually a little smaller diameter that the stock tires so that helps clearance. If you are going with wide front fenders then you won't have any trouble. If not, then with that offset you will need to do some rolling work to the front fender lips or not lower the car too severely.
ya i noticed to post for the other guy but since u already had 285 jus wondering wat ur input would be. when i bought the rims they came with 285/35 ( which are for sale at the moment $260 shipped) mounted on 2 of the rims so it save me little money jus doin 285 all around instead of buyin 4 new tires..(i'm goin wider front fenders too btw 20mm if i can find some for good price)

A 285/35/18 is 1-1.5" taller diameter than what I've run (285/30/18). Shouldn't be a problem in the rear. Front it may rub the fender liner at full lock. Not really sure with the huge offset you're running. APR says you can run 205's with their widebody, so you should be good. Guess you'll have to try it!

What are your options for the front bumper and rear... Or are you just going to use stock? Or are you technically just flaring the fenders... and keeping the front and rear bumpers the same width?

Cool answered my questions to the T! Usually someone posts a thread like this and never does anything. Good to see someone with some actual craftsmanship!

Nice Work.

For the gas door, I would get ride of it, and reroute the gas filler on the inside of the trunk. I have seen that done to a lot of customs and it works great ad make the oustide look so much better.
