I've got some 265/35 tires from my old rim set up... trying to decide on new rims, should I get CE28n 18x9.5 +15 or 18x10.5 +18?

Can't decide!! Please help!!

9.5 would be lighter wheels, but 10.5 would be more clearance for brembos so they don't get scratched up...

I went from 18x9.5 +15 rpf1s to my new advan rg-ds. I have 265 pss on my 18x10.5 +22 (3mm spacer) advan rg-ds and the stretch isnt too bad. keep in mind the pss are a wider tire for the size.

Varstoen 10.5 tires are 265 35 R18. Got them from a buddy, fit perfect on the rear but needed spacers on the front because there wasn't enough offset. but still looks good IMO.

lol seriously. 225 on 10 inch wide? Is that a typo? what is the point of running smaller tires? I must be getting old as I cannot stand these stretched tire crap. I don't mind stancing your car to your liking but come on people get the right size tires!

haha no typo, 225/35/19 on 19x10 inch wheels. Your right it is a stance thing and these are my "show" wheels

The orange grids are my "go" wheels which I use year round and run at a more practical ride height, this car is show and go

I had the rear fenders rolled, I was having ridiculous rubbing, any bumps at all were eating away my tires. I stiffened up the coils and that helped a bit, but im curious if theres something ive missed. theres an abundance of you guys on here running 10 or 10.5 with +15 or higher offsets and still a 265 tire. even with my damping tightened up, its a nightmare to go anywhere on the highway. ive been looking to get outta the cheap grids and into a better wheel, but id like to get the size and offset dialed in. my only thought was to run a 255 or 245, but the majority of yall are doing wider wheels and lower offsets with 265s. I don't feel like my car is significantly lower either, and I definitely don't want to raise it. help me out!

Still looks good from here Would like to see more though.

I just sold my personal set of 18x9.5 +22 for more aggressive Kinda doing the opposite of you, but still a good looking wheel.
