Rolling fenders is a god send for fitting aggressive sized wheels. The only problem is that when done to the front, the plastic fender liner no longer fits correctly and will ultimately be removed. (which sucks)

Guys iam planning to buy the enkei rpf1's 18 x 10,5 +15

i know i need to roll the fenders! ( but only rear i hope )

if i take 255/35/18 tyres will that be okay ?
and do you need to change the camber ??? ( as i dont like to change this, i dont know enough about camber to do this )

please advise me I REALLY like the aggressive wheels.
but i also want a good drivable car which i can go to the nurburg ring with ect

255/35 tires will be fine. There will be tire stretch, but in your case it will help with fender clearance. You will also get away with less negative camber with a thinner tire.

alot of stretch.. wont look very good, why not run thos tires on 9.5's RPF1's?
that way you prob wont even have to bother rolling the fenders?
I prob should have went that way

I'd suggest against running a 255 on a 10.5 if at all possible -- you should really stick to 9.5s with that tire since you aren't going to be taking advantage of the extra inch of wheel anyway.

I would suggest running 255 on there to help clear and it will not be that bad of a stretch. I run 255 on my 10" wide wheel and there is almost no stretch. you will have a slight stretch but nothing crazy I think it will be fine


Here is a look at 255 and 265 on 10.5 wheels. 265 would probably be a bit more ideal but I would be fine with 255
