Also what vendor would be able to get a hold of these rims? I searched online and haven't been able to find a website that offers them. I hate being the new guy, but thanks for the help!

Hoping to not have to roll the fenders.

Well they arent TEs but I found some CE28Ns in Takata Green in the Vendor EVO for sale forum. Vivid Racing is selling them.

I went with the TE37 SLs! They should be here in about a month though, which is way better than 3-4 months!

Tim -- you've got to take some pictures when they get mounted!

Without a doubt! Tires came yesterday, so excited to have them on the car. 265/35R18 Neova AD08's are so wide

I really want to thank Jason at Bulletproof, he's been really helpful with getting me the wheels and lug nuts!

Why are the 18x95 +22 a better fit than the 18x9.5 +35 ? Can u elaborate more on this ? Also any comments in regards to using the 255/40/18 tyres instead of 255/35/18 tyres ?

Because the "+" number is the offset- or how far out the wheel goes. Our stock wheels are +38 i think. That means they are up in the fender instead of flush with the fender. +22 will give you a nice clean look while +35 will still looked sunken in.

the face of the wheel will also change if you go with the 35 offset. Especially for this wheel.

The +22 can still look flush on a 8 or 9 but its considered an aggressive fitment. You will need to roll the fenders and run some neg camber.

Your suspension set up is also more important with the +22... it also depends if you are goin for function and not just form.

You can research it easily as many people run this size and offset on 8s and 9s.

Tire size... a 255/35 is usually the choice but some people run 265/35s with a little more work done to the fenders.
