haha. can you please elaborate on "technically yes"? From what I understand the 5 lug holes are the only thing necessary in order to fit? And you dislike these wheels because of the width or just think they're ugly??? I dont want to buy wheels which require me to modify my car, just something I can throw on and make it look a little cooler, that's why Im concerned with the size. Also, dont want to have to buy crazy expensive tires...

So the 18x7.5 doesnt fit? All the rim websites have 18x7.5 listed as being suitable for this car...I don't quite understand what tire width affects/changes in terms of the size parameters

I'm looking to get some new wheels: 18x10 +25. Probably fitting some 255/40 up front and 275/40 in the rear. Although I'm open to suggestions as far as tire sizing.
Thoughts on this setup? As far as needing any possible camber, making it flush, etc.

I'll be on Koni shocks and Megan Springs, the drop according to Chino iirc was about 2.25 F and about 2 in the rear.
As far as the tires, I'm all open to suggestions as to what would fit/work better.

Fronts are 19x8.5 offsets+40 and rears are 19x9.5 offsets +40 lowered on eibach springs.
Im putting 245/35/19 tires for fronts and 275/35/19 on rears. Any sugessting on my setup, im planning on rolling my rears. Will this setup be okay....

Alright I got some Stance Gr+ on the way, but I think I'm gonna settle on 18" rims instead of 19's. I was looking at Rota torque 18x9.5 +25 all around with 245/35/18's. Will the tires be a good fit, and how low can I go with this setup w/out any scrubbing? For anyone who didn't read my previous post, I'm okay with rolling my fenders and trimming the rear bumper tab. Any opinions/ suggestions would be great. Thanks!

aright because I dont see myself buying a more aggressive set or rims in the near term Ive decided to pick up a set of spacers for my rears just havent quite picked out which ones.
I am currently running 17x9.5 +30 on 245/45, lowered on eibach springs and bilstein shocks, and the fitment for the front is about where I want it but the rears are just a little to far sunk in. I am down between 15 and 20mm spacers. I have my fenders rolled and would really prefer to not have to do to much else to get it to fit.
I used to run 17x10 +25 on 245/45 on the same suspension with no rubbing issues.

You had 10+25 with 245s and just rolled the fenders? That's equivalent to 9.5 +22ish with 245s. Far cry from 15-20mm spacers (I'm sure they are doable though with more work). FWIW I rubbed like hell on the bumper tab with 9.5 +28 and 245s. I trimmed a bit of it off and still rub at 9.5 +23.
