Depending on your offset you will most likely have to roll. And dunlop Star Specs, or even the new nittos coming out they look good

id run 265/35/18's w/ the 18x9.5's.... that is a good combo.... most likely you will need coil-overs & massage/cut/roll your fenders to amek these wheels work... but again, I have yet to put my wheels on my car.

Nils or anyone.....I was told that cutting the fenders will give me maximum clearance of over rolling. I have a friend that does custom fabrication and he's a professional at it so he can cut mines but I was just seeing the options of cutting the fenders over rolling them. any thoughts and opinions?

if cut well, Im sure that might work better... its hard not to crack the paint when your rolling the fenders, specially as tight as the fenders need to be rolled to fit aggressive offsets...

I prefer cutting. It's pretty easy with an air grinder and cut-off wheel. Just tape the fender lip for a little protection and cut off the inner lip directly after the radius. Then it leaves a small round to prevent the lip from having a knife edge.
