Most sites only carry the GTS in 19"... I would PM Works Concepts (https://www.rx8club.com/worksconcepts-133/volk-racing-gram-lights-wheel-sale-166547/)
It depends what width tire you want to run JO3. If you need the rubber of a 275 then staying at the +40 range is a safe bet. If you can live with a 255 then you can run +25 ish with some fender work
Im looking at some 18x10 +25 wheels right now and salivating

I want my rears to be flush with the fender. I love how aggressive that looks. And because I want the front and rear to be the same, will that mean my fronts will stick out PAST the fenders?
As for 255/35 and not 255/40, I honestly just chose those numbers out of a hat; they sounded good to me. But the goal is to not rub and, probably more importantly, keep the same rolling diameter to prevent any speedo/ABS/etc malfunctions.
Thoughts?
EDIT: After doing some math, my currently stock setup is 225/45/18 tire size. So that gives me a tire sidewall of 101.25mm. A tire size of 255/40 will get me a sidewall of 102mm. If this is correct, a difference of .75mm in diameter shouldn't affect the speedo/ABS/DSC that much, right? .... RIGHT?!

My car is lowered on Ohlins coilovers and the rear fenders have been rolled and pulled. When I first put on the wheels, the rear did rub every once in a while but its perfect now. Looking back, I would probably go more aggressive on the front but I can always buy some spacers to push it out. I hope this helps!
