Will these Volks fit?
I have the chance to get some awesome wheels and I have been doing some research on the forums but I have yet to find or just completely missed it, if these wheel sizes will fit.
1. Volk TE37 Time Attack 18x9.5 +35mm
2. Volk TE37 Time Attack 19x9.5 +22mm
3. Volk TE37 Time Attack 19x8.5 +30mm
I'm leaning towards the 19x8.5 +30mm, but I'm not sure if I will have to roll the fenders.
I do not want to roll the fenders for any wheel and tire combinations. I just want a good aggresive look without spacers or fender rolling, etc. If one of the above 3 sets of wheels will require fender rolling (even if it depends on the tire size) count them out. What size would you get based on my criteria? Thanks for your help.

Use this:
http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp
stock: 18" 8.5" +38
1. likely, might have inner clearance issues, but should be ok
2. aggressive
3. nice!
Are you going to change the suspension at all?
Edit tires might be an issue as well, since some are wider than their stated spec. Any thoughts as to the rubber you'll be running?

im running 18x9.5 TA +34 CE's with no problems, might run 5mm spacers all around to push it out a little more. the 19x9.5 +22 would be the ideal size, but that depends if you want to run 19's or not

Well I just read the "fine print" on the web site for the 19x8.5's and the bolt pattern is 5x120 so they are a no go. I really wanted those. Need some help finding the 19x8.5 in 5x114's. Thanks.

I was planning on just installing springs to lower the car a bit, nothing to aggresive.
I would rather have 19's, only if there is no fender rolling involved.
As for tires, size I'm not sure of. But I am sure I like the square look, I do not like the "stretched" look.
So basically, 19's with a square look tire. So if I was to go with the 19x9.5 +22,
1. What would be the tire size for the square look?
2. Will the square look require fender rolling?

I have 18x9.5 TE37's in a +22 offset with 265/35 - 18 tires on an EvoX lowered with Eibach Springs and have no rubbing issues. I'm not sure its the square look that you want but you can see plenty pictures of this size tire on that and similar offset rims in the forums.

Everyone is saying 18x9.5 is ideal, but what about the 19x9.5. Will that 1" make any difference in clearance issues with the "square tire look"? Thanks.

19's and 9.5 you may have issues (prob will) if you have less then stock height. I'd get adj coils if you're doing this-not just springs. Rubber is a huge factor as well-265x35 on the 19's would be the biggest I go. Check wheeldude.conm out on here-he should know fo sho.

to make the "square tire look" on a 9.5" rim would be some wide rubber 275s likely would do the trick.

that should be fine.
Im not running Volks, but Advan RZ daily drivers 19x10 25mm offset with 275-30-19 tires and i only had to roll the back because I'm slammed on KWs...
by going 19x9.5 that should give you just enough clearance.
