factory wheels are 17x7.5 +40

so 18x9.5 +35 is the widest you'd wanna go for the rears and that WILL be sticking out a little bit from under the guards but not too much. Don't go 9.5 fronts that will look just lame and could get you busted, 8.5" fronts looks good.

Use this calculator ..it shows you exactly what will happen with new rim size and offset.

And this is what 18x9.5 +35 looks on a GTT

And just another quick note ... do not go below offset of +28 as that will make your wheeltrack illegal and your car's suspension etc will suffer.

and to answer your original question, if you use the calculator, you'll notice that 18x9.5+30 will give you an extra 5mm inner clearance but 5mm outside width than +35 ie. the rubber will stick out 0.5cm more than on the one pictured above which I think is pushing it as it is.

18x9.5 +27 (235/45)

18x9 + 14 (225/45)

on my r34, had to roll the rear 1/4s.

i put the 9.5 at the front cause the 9" stuck out so i swapped them around.

the 9" fits perfect on the back anyway due to the offset, might throw in a 5mm slip on spacer to make it right up against the guard.
