Hi Friends! I am planning to get Ambit RE02 wheels. I would like them in 18 inch, as that is the max size these come in. I would like to get a deep concave setup. so wondering if I can go with 18X9.5 +15 in the front and 18X10.5 +15 in the rear?
I am not a genius with offset thing And, I am assuming that lesser the offset more concave it is.. I would really appreciate your input. Thank you !!!

No. They will stick out inches beyond the fenders. The fronts you MIGHT be able to get to fit, with stretched tires and -4.0 degrees of camber. The rears will literally stick out 2" past the fender.

You might be able to run the +22 18x9.5s all around...you won't be able to go very low on your suspension though. I was running 20x10.5 +40 on 305/30/20 and they rubbed. I'm on H&R Supersports (Sportline equivalent). I switched to 275/35s and no more running. These wheels are already past the edge by almost 1/2". If you went 10.5 +15, you're adding another 1".

Thank you for the insight Laserred38. So if you think If I go +22, How will it impact concave of the wheel? I mainly choosing these wheels for the concave look.
Also in my research i found this link. Just for reference. Notice the wheel specs in the post.

Also, I forgot to mention I do not want to stretch tires.

Those tires are stretched. Not to mention I guarantee it rubs in the back. That or he's running insanely stiff springs to keep the tires off the fenders. You can roll and or flare the stock fenders a bit more than they come from the factory, but I don't see how those tires aren't tearing up the fenders, at least from my experience.

Ohh, I am sorry I didn't know they were stretched. So fender rolling might help a little bit. How about in the front?

laserred38

How low are you intending to be?

firstang001

I am already sitting little low on Ground control coil over. Around 1.5 inch all around.

Ignoring the stretch, those wheels look cool!
