I'm looking into changing out my stock wheels on my 2009 GT. I want to put 265/40R18 tires all the way around and don't know what size wheels to locate that I won't have to modify anything in order to have no rubbing. I will be running on the track and autocross. Any suggestions???

I'm looking to go 18x9 +35 I think...
No suspension mods (yet) Not sure what size tire to go with, so input would be appreciated.
How would this setup compare to stock as far as being a little more flush than the stock wheels, particularly in the back? I hate how sunk-in the rear wheels look...

They are a set that I am buying off someone so ditching the stag is not an option. Also why I am not lowering first b/c I cannot afford both and don't want to miss these wheels.
here is a pic:

good gawd those are nice.
well, since you're locked by the wheels. I would def wait n' save money for the suspension otherwise you're wheels are gonna poke out ridiculously on oem struts.
imo, patience will be your best friend.
Btw, 45 is a tall sidewall. Shoot for a 35 profile. You also may want to reconsider the sizing. imo, 245F; 255R
You're gonna need a roll on all four corners.

I kinda figured. I knew once I get them it would be a while before I could mount them. I really just want to avoid getting 4 new tires when I had just bought grand worth of tires like 2 months ago. These wheels came out of no where and I had to have them.

It seems kinds crazy to build a car around a set of wheels, but I can almost understand where you are coming from cuz those wheels are beautiful!
