Wider wheels ... aggressive fitments?
need some input from all the guys that tend to run more aggressive fitment. My current set up is 18x9 +30 and 18x10+30 with a 225/40/18 and 235/40/18. The car is lowered on Tein basics and i have rolled fenders all around and have 0 rubbing issues. I want something a lil wider and im trying to see if i can get away with like a 18x10.5 in the rear with no rubbing issues or crazy camber stuff and also go a lil wider in the front as well. thanx in advance guys !

yea you can go wider and a lil lower 
do you want to stick with 18" rims??
go a 1/2" wider up front and back rear with same offsets and you will be golden. otherwise throw on a 5-10mm spacer see how you like it and if it rubs.

remember 5mm spacers only make like a 1/4" difference so its not going to be a huge OMG change.
it just depends on the look you want and how much camber you want to run if you go 1/2" up on rim widths front and back with same offsets that is pretty much as far as you can go with only rolled fenders and like -2/-3 camber

You'll be surprised at how much more room camber kits will give you.
For the rear, you can get away with 10.5 ET15-22, maxed out on camber.
For a 10" wide rear this about 18x10 ET10-15
I would just throw that 18x10 +30 up front and order a wider set of rears with lower offset.

^ very true but he doesnt want to run "crazy" camber.... not sure what crazy means lol but probably nothing more than the natural camber from being lowered I am assuming

18x9.5 +30 with a 225/40/18
18x10.5 +30 with a 245/40/18.. is perfect
Actually even this it still depends on how lowered you are.

i want to keep the stock camber that i will just get from lowering the car , as far as putting the rear wheel on the front cant do so b/c of the brembos and im also selling the wheels. I put on some 10mm spacers on front and back tonight and no rubbing with someone in the car , so i guess the new set up will be the same 18x9 and 18x10 just different offset and same tires. If i put a 245 in the rear im sure it will rub
