Default Will 20ET offset fit?

I know there is loads info here, and I've had a look. But couldn't see this size.

I've got a '99 Camaro. I want to fit 265/35R18 on each corner using 18x9.5 rims. They have an offset of 20ET.


Does anyone know if these will fit?


20ET should make the wheel stick out of the arch more I think over the stock 16x8 rims with 245/50R16's on. Anyone know if this will work?

BTW - I'm looking at this size, as this is a common tyre size in the UK, so gives me lots of choice and good prices on tyres. Sadly most of the sizes you guys run in the US are hard, impossible or silly expensive in the UK.

You'll need to roll the rear fender lips and run a adjustable phb, and up front the tires will probably stick out some unless you're running some negative camber and have the car lowered. Even with doing these things you still might have clearance issues.
I'd still highly recommend going with at least a+30 offset w/18 x 9.5" wheels, but a +35 to +40 offset would be even better.
