18x9.5, +35 offset...
I might've posted in the wrong forum earlier...but here goes.
Well first of all, the wheels were more of a gift than anything, but I do like how they look...so here come the questions.
Basically I'm looking at 18x9.5, +35 offset for the front and rears. I'm lowered an inch and a half maybe, on Tein S-Tech's. I already know it should be staggered but I can't really help it at this point, cuz they came all in the same size
I'm just wondering if there's any way to make this work properly? Without super modification? Someone mentioned running super-stretched tires, like 225's, but it sounded kind of ridiculous to me. I know the offset isn't high enough, and I'm kind of worried. Is there any feasible way to make this work??
Any help, input or advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

you would have to flare the front fenders a lot ( they will need to be repainted) or run wide fenders in the front. rolling the rear + bolt relocation.
for tiresize i would go 245 all around. this is going to look funky with just a 1 inch drop. i wouldnt recommend doing it

So I spoke with the person who got em for me, and he said I might be able to exchange them for 18x7.5, and 18x8.5, with the same offsets. Is there any way to run 18x8.5 in the front, and 18x9.5 in the back without all those modifications?
Or should I just go, 18x7.5 in the front, 18x8.5 in the back...?
(with the same +35mm offsets)

Here use the wheel offset calculator. This will let you know where the wheel will be in relation to the stock position. Just for reference I have included the AP1 and stock AP2 wheels sizes for your starting fitment.

AP1
F - 16x6.5 +55
R - 16x7.0 +65
AP2
F - 17x7.5 +55
R - 17x8.5 +65
