Default 18'' rims with 1''drop

Hi,

I was wondering if it would fit if put 255 in the rear on Azenis tires on 18'' volk rims with an offset of +51 and a 1'' tein drop.

If it doesnt fit, would it fit if i install my oem srings back on?

Thanks

You would need to roll the fender lips and run more negative camber. It is still going to be tight. Even the 55 mm offset on the 18X9 can rub.

18x8.5 + 52 (or 51, can't remember) with a 255/35 and a 1 inch drop. No problems. Will eventually roll the fenders to lower it more though.

lol,
I was messing around with some RPF1s yesterday...

17x9.5 +15(+17?)

extends out ~50mm.. I think a roll, slight pull and some 215/40 with camber will fit it perrrfectly.
