s14 will 18x8.5 +22 w/235 rub front fenders (S14)

so will 18x8.5 +22 w/235 rub front fenders on a s14?

if not what about +30? but will this clear coilovers in front?

also...what about the rear ones...18x9.5 with 255 tires...what offset will clear both coilovers and fenders (oops is that even possible?)
offsets to pick from: ±0, +12, +28, +35, +40

my car has 1.8" drop all around with -2 cambers all around.

ARGH i'm getting INSANE picking wide wheels with correct offsets.

Please help.

Are you set on getting 18's? My car isn't lowered, but I have some 17x8 with 35 offset, I think, and it works. I'm pretty damn sure it will clear z brakes. The 1.8 drop in the front wouldn't kill me since I have some 215 tires on it, but for the 235 in the back im not sure it's kind of close to call.

Hey 240Stilo are you running 17X8 +35 with 215 tires in the front with coilovers? and everything clears?

also you are running 17x8+35 in the rear right? just want to make sure.

Thank you

Like I said in the previous post, my car isn't lowered. But, I'm sure it will clear Z brakes and i'm pretty sure it will handle the 1.8 drop in the front maybe 1.5 in the back will be fine...maybe.
