how do I get 18x9.5 +22's to fit on my 9

I was told I need to roll my fenders in the rear, I was also wondering what's a really good tire to run with those. I was also told I need a thinner tire?

you might need spacers up front too. i had to get arp wheel studs so the threads would fit with the 15mm spacers and the hollow type racing lugs that fit the extra long studs. i use 265/35 r18. enkie nt03+m 18x9.5 +27 i need fender rolling. it also depend on what type rim your going to get?.

you will not need spacers up front,

roll or trim the rear,

if you want the perfect fitment without alot of trimming

use the dunlop DZ 101 in 255/35-18

it wont be as stretched as you think. we have done it.

I'm running a 265/35/18 on my 18x9.5 +22 setup. The rears have to be rolled or cut. the fronts are OK with suspension. Running on Hankook R-S2.

a 255 on a 9.5 isn't really that stretched anyway.
i'm running 255/40's on a 10.5 and it's not even stretch really. just a little.
but it is a rt-615 and those run bigger.

I've run both 18X9.5 +20's and now +22 and the plus 22's actually don't scrub in the front like the +20's used to in hard lock to lock turning.

I have the rears rolled slightly and the fronts are perfect.

18x9.5 with 255x35x18 ad08's. I had to slightly roll the rear and relocate two bumper tabs.
