you could always go with the 18x8.5. the convex spokes provide more clearance for big brakes.
Thanks again for all the info! I am thinking about going 18x9 +35 and run a 10mm spacer but I'm concerned I won't be able to fit a 245/40 tire with that offset.

Also thinking about going with the TC105N 18x9 +35 all around as I heard this will clear the caliper but just found out that these wheels are not in stock and will take 8 weeks to get.

My absolute first choice would be Volk ZE40 but that is a bit too expensive so I'm thinking a final choice might be some Advan wheels. Either the RZ line or a TCIII. Can't decide!
