How much space can you gain by rolling the fenders in the rear?
Are looking at the BBS LM in 18",and according to them you can fit a 9,5x18 offset 52 in the rear.
But that would make the rear wheel stick out +38mm compared to the OEM wheels,isnt that a bit to much?

Rolling the fenders does not make it stick out any less, but it may allow the tire to clear under full suspension compression. In any case, it's the size of the tire that you need to worry about to determine whether or not to roll the fender.

 

18x9.5 with +52mm

With this wheel, you better not lower your car a whole lot and I would say you should use a 255/35/18 tire.

But, I think you better go with a wheel that has a larger offset so you can use a 265/35/18 tire.

18x9.5 +70mm


I have 18x8.5 +50mm in rear...I plan to use 255/35/18 next. My car is lowered, and I feel that I will have to roll the fender a bit.

Word of caution here, you can't slam it with Zeal B6's! If you already didn't know...if you go too low in the rear, you'll break off that bottom nipple inside the tube. I think we discussed this before, right? Did you ever get it resolved with Zeal?

 

255/35-18 is the size BBS recommends,and my car is lowered 1".
Think its going to work?

Yeah.. I switched out the front springs to the rear, and the rears to the front.
