I was highly considering the bright chromes, but wanted to go semi conservative with the color yet aggressive with the offset and dimensions of the wheels...+ save a little money
So what are your wheel specs?
offsets...size...etc.
Post em up! lets see those beauty's!

I'm hoping the wheels will have a similar stance on my car as seen in these pics...

9.5" rear w/40mm offset and 275 tires seems to go flush (w/o camber kit) according to others.
Using this assumption, I would think you want to go 6mm offset the other way (10" with 46mm offset) to stay flush. But the 275 will be slightly stretched so you may pull it off. Be sure to post up your findings.

To asnwer your question, the 245/275 tire setup you're going with will have a very minor stretch, but nothing drastic. Your wheel widths are still within manufacturer specs of the tires.

Sorry my friend .. it will go together, but I can't tell from the posts if this is the look you want.
You mentioned in another post that you were going w/Eibach Pros which is what I have on my car. I have 10" with +48 offset and 285 tires and everything is perfectly flush w/no rubbing. I also have a camber kit in the rear and my alignment is nominal at -.83. So really, the difference between your setup and mine is the offset and tire width.
Finally, according to the factory service manual, the camber spec (in deg) for an S or journey is -1.33 min / -.83 nominal / -.33 max. Technically, -1.5 deg is out of spec. but you may need the slight camber to avoid rubbing.
It seems like it will be very close and will come down to camber and tire selection.

-1.5 front
and -2 in the rear
its a shame i cant see what it'll look like before they align my wheels. You just have to tell them what you want and you see the outcome ounce its been completed? Is this how it works?

They will try for nominal unless you tell them otherwise.
Not many people actually know what the mfr alignment specs are for their car.

Hey Gdup35sedan...

That's 3mm more clearance than Hans' setup but he's also using a 275 tire which will give him 5mm less tire width on the outside so essentially he could run a +33 and still not rub with -1.8 camber. So with -1.5 he should be perfect with the +35 offset
