of course you'll need to do a bit fender work and whatnot.

Depends on what tire size you will be running, how low you are, and if you have a camber kit.

18x9 +45mm will work all around with approx 1.5-2" drop and 1-1.5 degrees of negative camber. You will need some rolling up front.

8.5 is the safest u can go without fender work, but even then the drop can't be too dramatic. I personally would stop at 8....

right now im running 18*8+30 with 225 40 tires. i think you can get away with 18*9+30 with 215 45 tires. the rim going to stick out 13mm more than mine but then if you run the 215 it would be 13mm-5mm, which really only going to stick out 8mm more than my setup. i dont rub at all in the front with a fender liner tuck and i think i could add another 8mm to it. dont worry about the back at all, i am slammed with zero gap and i also have a 15mm spacer in there so youll be ok.

18x9 +40 all around, isn't a problem. The only thing that's good about runing a 18x9 is the look.

Here is 18x9 +55 with 15mm spacers.

I'm running 18x9 +35 all around and I'm pretty slammed. By rear fender almost touches the top of my rim. I have probably 3 to 4 degrees of camber in the back. The only thing is that I'm rubbing all over, front and back because I'm too lazy to go do any fender work.

18x8.5 with a 40 offset looks just fine. I run that on my 18" Rays 57f's with 235/40/18 tires and never rubbed. I'm lowered around 2" all around. Any lower offset or wider wheel will rub. My 19x8 TE37's with 35 offset rub if people sit in the back only.
