18x8 34ET & 18x9 37ET .....good fitment?

I know they aren't perfect for our car, but not too bad...
I am wondering if 225/255 or 225/245 setup would be no rubbing...

Out of Curiosity what wheels are these? I think maybe with the stock 215/245 setup it would fit with a mild fender roll.

The fronts *may* fit with a mild roll and some camber. But the rears wont.

both front and back will rub a little. Nothing that you can't work out with some camber adjustment and a little fender rolling, if you want to fit them.
It will probly be better with the 215/245 combination.

I agree with Julius. With some fender rolling you should be able to fix the rubbing issues. They are a bit on the aggressive side.

Our VMR V710's offered in a 8.5 +45 front and a 9.5 +50 rear are perfectly flush with the fender on a 225/245 tire. These are +5mm aggressive on the front and +7mm aggressive in the rear, so some camber adjustments may also be needed depending on your ride height.
