Which wheels in particular are you looking to fit? The design of the spokes also plays a role so it isnt as simple as width and offset.

I'm running 18x10 +35 Rota GForces. 285x30 tire. I have a 15MM spacer and it's WAAY to big for the front. I think I can get away with a 5mm spacer.

Do you already have the rims? You can do a test fitment with some washers and see if they clear. Don't set the car down, you just want them to fit right. You will also need wheel stud extensions, but that's super easy to install. Took me 10 min to do both sides.

I have work emotions on my car 18x9.5 +20 265/35/18 and the fit without any mods other than taking the fender lining off. I'm also lowered so at stock height you may not have to.

Interesting. I got enkei raijin 18x9.5 +15 on my 8 and the front has only rubbed on the liner and these tabs in the liner well. I'm at stock height myself. My tires I think are wrong. I'm running 255/35
