what do i need to do to fit 18x11 CCW classics and what tires should i go with

planning to get CCW Classics 18x11 all around.

Questions I have:

I need to know where I can buy quality extended studs for my 08' X
what size tires should I get for 18x11. I'm not very tire smart so all the numbers like 285/30/18 dont really comply with me. im guessing 18 is rim size, idk the rest
where can i get good quality camber kits.
do i need coilovers to fit these wheels?
What do I need to do to fit these wheels with tires on my car with no rubbing

my car is my daily, but i do bring it to shows, and canyons for some twisties.

Tire sizes:

Your example:
285 is width in mm
30 is sidewall height in % of width (so 85.5mm in this example)
18 is wheel size

why do you need wheels that wide? don't take such an awesome wheel and ruin it with some "hellastupid" unfitment...

I do believe that "hellastupid" is my new favorite adjective.

Yeah I think that 18x11 is just too big and most likely you'll need coilovrrs forsure.

Most people perform their fender mods using a fancy roller and puller. I suppose you could beat on the fenders with a coilover, instead, but it doesn't seem like a wise approach.

why: because I want to. To you it may be hella stupid, even though you havent seen the final outcome. To me it's not hella stupid. I wouldn't spend 3g's on just rims to be hella stupid, thats stupid. go and google "itsy bitsy 18x11 CCW classics not for show only" and tell me if that guy is "hellastupid" too

I don't opinions on if it'll look good or not, I've had enough of those on this forum.

coilovers isnt a problem.

I'm sure I'll have to do a roll and pull. I just really need to know what tire size to go with and where to get some parts mentioned

Exaclty, CCW Classics are for go only and also happen to look badass. I said hellastupid not cause of the look (although in my opinion the whole hellaflush look is hellastupid) but cause of functionality. You'll have to do some stupid crap with your alignment and suspension setup to get 11" wide wheel to fit... It'll ruin the handling... Therefore hellastupid... Get some 10" CCW's and it'll be hellaesome
