Offset question...

35 offset on 9.5/275? This offset would be way too conservative. If you're looking for a look flush with the fenders you need offsets in the low 20s. Also the tire size may be a little wide for the wheel.
+35mm should fit. But it depends if you have Brembos or a BBK, they might or might not fit. But weirdly, I bought a set of 17" snow rims with a +38mm offset during a test fitting and they actually CLEAR my Brembo front calipers due to the arc'ed design of the spokes. So I guess it depends on the design of your wheels. I'm guessing you've got a set of rims lined up but just needed to confirm if it will fit?
If not, and you are still shopping around, then I would recommend an offset in the mid +20's. You will be much happier than a +35 offset because it will look more aggressive (i.e. being more flushed with body). +35 will give you a more tucked look. Depends what type of look you are going for.

Actually 275's will fit perfectly for a 9.5 width wheel and giving some rim protection too. My 275's are quite stretched on my 10.5 wheels, doesn't quite cover the entire width either, and not enough rim protection. But the +35 offset is definitely too conservative.
