Wheel Fitment question?

[SuperSleeper]

Will 18x9.5 +12 clear the front struts with a 285/40 tire on a s197? Not sure what offset is needed here. I have a brain fart when it comes to offset..

18x10 +40 is perfect for the front. 18x9.5 you'll need about a +35 offset. If you want a 285, you need a 18x10 though.

Tried fitting 18x10.5 +22 all around and the front was rubbing the struts pretty bad. I am having to send the fronts back and ordering a different size. I'm going with the varrstoen es1's for a different look. Only available sizes right now are 9.5 +22 and +12.

Yea your gonna need coilovers up front to fit the 18x10.5 in +22. I had that on the front of my car earlier. I will post up pics tomorrow. If the rain stops.

You may be able to get away with 9.5 +22 you might be able to get away with but your gonna need to stretch some tires
