XXr 527 18 x 9.5 +20 all around?

Going to be putting in the order soon. I have already read both the 530 and 527 forums.
I dont want to go staggered. Just wondering if the 18 x 9.5 will fit all around without a front camber kit?

I do have coilovers and a camber kit for the rear and realize there will have to be stretching of fenders involved.

Otherwise I will just go with the 18 x 8.75 and put spacers in the back.

Thank you everyone

Bada$$VTEC has this exact setup, except he does have the skunk2 arms up front, but camber is set at -2. He is also running a 235/35/18 tire all around. He is 23" from ground to fender so he is pretty slammed as has told me personally he has no rubbing issues.

Also the specs are 18 x 9.75 not 9.5

^What Chip said,i have no rubbing issues at all even

when i didnt have a camber kit up front.

You can still run 225/40 up front without issues.

Hell when i maxed out my coilovers,i had 225/40

up front and i didnt rub at all.

Thanks for the great info guys. Uv made my decision for me.
So for tieres i should go 235/35/18?
And how do you guys feel about spacers in the back for a staggered look? Correct me if that is a stupid question lol i just love the staggered look, with the practicality of being able to rotate tiers (:

Not much room for spacers in the rear with that size wheel. Besides I think only wheels with a lip will give you a true staggered look.

You don't have to do the 235/35 tires, you can also run 225/40 (more typical tire setup). I just sited bada$$VTEC's specs because he has a setup that doesn't rub and he's slammed.

Adding a spacer is going to very tough because at +20 with a 9.75" rim you are going to be very flush already. I would stick to the 9.75 +20 all around or if you really want a staggered setup because you like the look, do 8.75 +20 up front and 9.75 +20 rear.
