But maybe +30 offset? All around. Or maybe a little more for the front.
I'm not sure yet still a big noob at this, but I love it. Ahah.
Idk what kind tires or what.

9.5 +30 is tough for a few reasons:
1. Front will poke a decent amount. I'm running 9 +30 and it pokes a decent amount already, but I'm not that low so it isn't a problem.
2. Rears will rub (depending on tire size). 99% chance you're going to need to roll your rear fenders.
Otherwise, will fit depending on the tires you get. On my old setup I ran 235/40/r18 on 18x9.5 +45 with 15mm spacers in the back. I rolled my rear fenders, and everything else was fine. Mind you, I wasn't that low though, so if you plan on tucking, you might end up needing to stretch tires more (i.e., a thinner tire, like 225). Also if you plan on going even more aggressive, keep aftermarket camber kits in the back of your mind too.

that helped me visualize it a little better.
Im not going to be tucking, i just want a 0 gap in between my tires and fenders.
btw how hard was it to roll your fenders?

The biggest fear with fender rolling is paint cracking. The second biggest fear is buckling of the fenders near the edge where the rear bumper connects. With these two things in mind, I decided to have a shop do it for me. Ended up with no paint crack and a tiny bit of buckling.
