Default 18x9.5 with 265/40/18 fittment?

I know, ive searched. and cant find anyone running this setup,


im looking at getting the axis reverb ( i cant find the offset) in 18x9.5 for the rear with 265 wide tires. I also have tein superstreet coilovers with about a 1 inch drop. My fenders are not rolled. will i have any problems?

It depends on your offset...a higher offset, +45 or something you shouldn't have any problems...

Lower the offset, you'll have to roll your fender to get away with a wide tire...

Good luck!

As long as your offset is higher then 35 I think you should be fine. But if you fit 265's in the front with the same setup, then you will be in trouble.

Depends on the tire brand. I had 265/35 michellin pilots on a 9.5" rim and it required fender rolling - nad thats on a very non aggressive +42 offset.
