Tire/Wheel size help

Tire/Wheel size help.....

Guys, I am looking in to a Tire wheel combo of (non deep dish) 18x10 Bullitt’s for the rear and 10x9 for the front. I have currently installed the Ibach Pro-kit…
Questions I have:

- will the 18X10 be too wide for the rear?

- Does anyone have this setup? If so, that tire sizes are they running? Please Provide pics…
- Would I be better with just going with 18x9 all around?

See attached document/pics...


Any help or advice would be appreciated..

Thanks in advance..

Adam

I have 18x9's up front with 275/35/18's and 18x10's with 295/35/18's out back. Never had rubbing issues with my eibach prokit springs, even while fully loaded. Hope this helps.

Wheel offset is critical for the 10" wheels

18x9 w/ 255/45 front
18x10 w/ 295/45 rear (with 45mm offset)

I used a GMS adjustable panhard brace to recenter the rear. You dont notice it now but when you stick bigger meats on, you will notice the rear axle out more to the left side and you will have to adjust it so it's recentered so your tires dont rub.

the rear tires fill the wheel wells quite nicely and dont rub at all on my car.
