i would recommend 255/35/R18 if you want to go 18x9.5 +15

255/40/R18 would definitely require a fender roll and some negative camber.....

255/35/R18 your chances are alot better....you might rub very little...

possible with 255/35/18, but you will have to set some mad camber, most likely 2.x to 3.

that must be really stretched! Since NT-05 is known to run more narrow then most tires!

I have 19x9.5 +15, on Eibach springs, near stock alignment front and rear. Of course, the rear fenders are rolled and the front fender liners are modified.
