Front
18x8.5
offset: 40

Rear
18x9.5
offset: 45

prolly run a front 225/40/18 and rear 255/35/18 sized tires
rears will require fender rolling

It depends on the tires but you "might" have to roll the fenders.

Bingo, I think the 255s should be fine on standard suspension but you can run a 245 to be safe.

no 255 isnt fine on standard suspension it WILL rub on dips or bumps big enough.. i know, i am running the same offset, and before i just changed my springs the inside of the fenders have paint rubbed off them anyways youll have to roll or cut your fenders not a big deal
