Default MRR - GT1 (Hyper Silver) 18x8.5" / 18x9.5

I am new to the GTO's. Love everything about the car. My question is with the wheels in the title will I have to cut or roll the fenders? The offset will be 38 front and 45 rear.

what is ofset of vehicle.that will determine rather you need a certain tire size or rollin the fender but being there staggered you might want to reverse the offset!!!!

I was going to go with 245/35, 275/35 BF Goodrich - G-Force T/A KDW. I don't understand when you say offset of vehicle.

You will need to roll or cut, I found it easiest just to cut them close so I don't have any issues at all with street tires or wide drag radials.

Thanks for the input guys. As of right now when I get the new wheels I am going to cut instead of roll.

With 18x9.5 and 275/35 Hankook V12's, I had to roll a little and I have Pedders 5/16 drag springs.
