265 Test fit... rear
After meeting up with gotboost79 and attempting to roll the fenders, I was was finally able to throw the rear wheels on. I must say that I am very happy with the end result
And here is how she is currently sitting until I figure out what I want to do with the front. The fronts are rolled and the wheels fit nice, I just have to contend with the tab where the fender and bumper meet. I am thinking about following Sharkbreaths lead and using a dremel to cut the metal... Or I am going to cut a slot in the metal so that i can pull the corner of the fender in order to match what is rolled.

Thanks a lot... When everything is all said and done I will head down to you and take a look at your new set up. I can't wait to see the new A-Specs on your car

Updated!!! 18x9.5 +30 with 265/35's on all corners
Here are some updated shots of the 265's mounted up front. I am about 90% done with my "Stance." I just have to fiddle with the suspension to make sure the fronts are even and the rears as well.
While rolling and pulling the fenders I did get some cracking of the paint. Yes, I did heat up the paint with a heat gun, but everything came out pretty good for a first time roller In the front where the fender meets the bumper, I used a grinder to get rid of that pesky tab. I used some touch up paint to cover the bare metal but I am open to suggestions for a more long term fix. Maybe a new matte white pearl paint job
As far as the ride height, I rather run the 265's then slam the car. If I lower any corner, i will only do so 1/4 inch in order to even things out. When I get everything at the right height, I will go for an alignment and adjust the camber for a little added security. When all is said and done I will take some better shots
C&C welcome.

Oh man, that looks SO good
It might be the picture or me but I think your rear right is slightly lower than the rear left.
