you should be able to run those without issue...

I think you need to understand that lowering springs may cause rubbing issues with crazy offset. Stock height and you should be fine.

I was running rims that were 17 x 9.5 +15 and I had alot of rubbing issues. Luckily I have wide fenders in the front but the rears gave me alot of trouble. If my ride height was higher, I prob wouldn't have had any issues at all.

To make things easier for you, tire size could play a factor here as well I believe you could probably run a 255/40/18 but 255/35/18 would probably be your best bet. If you decide to go lower with some coilovers you will have more room to work with because of the smaller tire. Larger tires would mean you wouldn't be able to go as low as you want because of the tire height.

If I can get away without buying coils that would b great but if I have to buy coils I wanna get the best inexpensive one which idk which are those so if i get 255/35/18 I can run 18x9.5+22 without coils just fender rolling just kinda stressed cause I have no tire thread left on old set up n I wanna buy these wheels this week

if you want some decent, cheap coils you could always go for megans.

You should be able to run 255/35/18 without rolling.

first off... iono what kind of car you got.. lol but SWIFT/GTworx springs are the ones to get.. best bang for buck performance wise and looks wise..

also you will be fine running 18x.9.5 +22 on a evo 8/9 roll the fenders.. they will fit good in the rear.. and you can do a evo dave fender mod in the front if they rub (i personally like the fender mod), it also depends on what brand of tires you get as well. tire size suggestion 255/35/18.. 8/9 265/35/18 evo X

on a evo X you should have no problems at all.
