If you’re looking for winter beaters; pick up a set of base wheels- though they’re sunk in some/ they’re 8/9” specs are +43/+15
Unsure the cost of these Wheels you listed: but when you’d have to use 35mm or more spacers,definitely stay away!

Default fitment help for newb

have stock base coupe 2018
DO NOT want to change suspension or worry about rubbing and want to run 245/45/18 front 285/40/18 back
have the following choices for the wheels I like
front 18x8.5 +30 or 18x9.5 +35
back 18x10.5 +22

which will fit without issue and look decent, or are the offsets too far off? I don't have to be perfectly flush, just look nice

Thanks

You can put what you want;
It's just some people like to roll "BIG" with 10/11's up front & 12" or more out back...
pending suspension setup-some will work & some wont; kinda helps when someone has been there-done that.

Mine is currently parked w/225/50/18F & 345/30/19R on 8’s & 12’s...all stuffed under fenders; hoping Dragstrip will be open this weekend & I can finish off the 1/32” tread left on these Invo’s- before dismounting & diving into my 2 stacks of 325/30’s

What would be the best tire size combo for these specs?

Base Z
18x9.5 +22
18x10.5 +15

Looking for both specs in a slight stretch, and a no stretch at all.

standard tires for those widths are 245/35 front and 275/30 rear. VERY subtle stretch.

Iv seen people go up to 275/35 up front and 305/30 in the rear for a really meaty look though. You have a lot of options with those wheel widths.

Default The "Will it fit?" thread

Short answer:

Option 1: 245/40 & 285/35 slight stretch

Option 2: 265/35 & 305/30 no stretch

Option 3: 275/35 & 325/30 meaty

All depends on your use case scenario.

And for the offsets +22 & +15 works for flushyness just have to take into account akebono clearance if need be.
