Basic wide set up would be 18x9.5+22 off set on a 265/18 tire.
Keep in mind once u decide to roll the rear slightly u can fit a 275/18 without any issues.
Do some fender work on the front as well as the rear (minor work) n u can run 285/18 on the same wheels spec mentioned above.
Any lower offset will just push the wheel out! Anything can b done, but of course it will take a bit more work to get it done right and have some actual "clearance".

Ty soo much guys I think I'm already set for the 18x9.5 +22
Do I need to adjust the camber or I can keep on stock camber setup?

i honestly think 18x9.5 +25 is best. it will push the wheel out 26mm and keep the inner clearance the same. if you got 9.5+22, it'll pop out 29mm and you will gain 3mm clear in the inside. gonna have to get minor fender work done if u go with 9.5+22

Crazy camber wears out your tires. Do you not want to do fender modifications because it's expensive? Most any 18" tire that is good enough to be under an Evo X will cost you WAY more than fender mods when it wears out with a bunk alignment based on clearance to the fenders alone.
