I also have the 18x9 and 18x10. I'm running 275/35/18's on the front and have some rubbing on the plastic inner fender lining when turning sharp. A smaller tire should keep it from rubbing but it's not a big deal since it rubs in the middle and there is nothing for the tire to catch on and I cannot hear any noise from the rubbing. As far as sticking is concerned I wouldn't want them any further out as they are border line on being too far now.....I think they look good but any further it would start to look odd.

The rears fit great...plenty of clearance on the inside of the wheel well and very close to rubbing the fender lip on the outside. I just lowered the car this last weekend and so far no cut side wall from the fender lip. I don't want to roll the fender lip so I'm going to take it easy for awhile to see what happens. Btw 295/35's on the rear.

18x9 = 25mm
18x10 = 41mm

I believe these are the only options they come in with the 18" wheel.

Do you think that you would be able to post up some pics regarding the front wheel fitment? You were saying something about them borderlining with the front fenders.

Here's a couple of threads that I have posted. Once the weather clears up and I have some time to clean the car up I will be posting some new pictures since I just lowered it.

That looks good, I've never seen rebels with a dark silver center like that before.
