To get concave on any of those wheels, you're gonna have to run a lower offset. Meaning, you're gonna have to do some fender rolling/pulling, and possibly run more negative camber. The most common sunk face sizes for those wheel that I know of, are in 17". 17x9's, usually with a +44 or +45 offset.

Any picture to see difference between semi concave, and deep concave ?

So I could get 7,5x18ET48 Front
and
8,5x18ET38 Rear


Because 9,5x18ET38 would be much TOO large, big job on fenders needed, right ?

8.5x18 ET38 is already pretty much over the limit.

Dont thing you can still run a 255 or 245
should have to run 235 rear plus fender work if you still wanna "drive" your car

I'm sure you can do a 245 with rolled fenders and a little more camber than stock. You should still roll your fenders even with 235s
