s13, sorry I think that was in my earlier post? Anyway, well if it's more design then offset, I'll have to see what should allow me to clear. THANKS!

And just to clarify currently i have the fenders up front and back rolled a bit. So what I am thinking is

18x9.5 -5(maybe 10 depending on everything) with 245/40/18
18x10 -5(same as above) with 245(255?)/40/18

First off, 245/40-18s have no business sitting inside these cars wheel wells. They are simply too big diameter wise, worst yet on an S13. I know its pretty shitty finding decent 35 series tires, but you have to kick it down.

Secondly, on stock fenders and wide tires, stay away from negative offset wheels. Its hard enough to fit these wheels on skinny assed/stretched tires. If you insist on running 245-255 width tires and not beat the living crap off the fenders to pull them, kick it down to +20 ish offsets on the 9.5/10j width rims).

I have an S13 of which I have 50mm widebody fenders out back and 40mm up front. I was going to go with 4 to 5 lug adapters (real ones made of quality material) which are 45mm wide. What size spacer would I have to go with additional to this to make these sit about flush. Also is that really safe at all?

Doesnt do me any good when I have no idea what's the width but why the hell do you want +45 wheels? Better yet, its bad enough you're running spacers but you want to stagger TWO!?!?!

Step away from the car, stop modding and then sell it if you think this is remotely okay or safe...

I wouldnt attempt it, specially up front on S13s. You'd have to do alot of work to make it fit up front. Without modding the ever living crap out of the wheel well, you can kiss your lock to lock steering.
