Will these Work VSXX rims fit my Coupe?

Hey guys, as the title says, I found a great set of Work VSXX wheels from a friend of mine. Size and offset: 18x9 with +9 fronts, 18x11 with +20 rears. Im getting them without tires, so i get the chance to choose my own tires. And my car is running stock height (non-sport), no fenders rolled, without any mods. So please help me out, Im getting those nice wheels within next week or the week after that and i dont want to roll my fenders . And what tire size should I use to run the car without rubbing Thanks a bunch guys.

I would run a 225/40 front and 265/35 rear you might need to roll the fenders. You are stock height but will look killer dropped

Also no sure what disk type you have but that will determine the fit on the front, spacer might be required. I would run one in the rear to match the aggressive front.

Nope no need to roll the rear fender. btw try going 275/30 on the rear.

Im not sure about the disk. What i saw on the stickers is this: 18x9 OJJ off +9 and 18x11 OJJ off +20. But the width is 9" not 9.5", so i think with offset +9 is not very aggressive.

I really want to run small tires 275/30 to make sure that it does not rub, however, it will bring up the mile so fast because these rims are 18" and the stock tire sizes should be 45. So i think it should be at least 40, am i right? I dont know, im pretty noob in this .

And btw, is 275/35/18 the same as 245/45/18 which is the stock tire size? My current wheel set is stock 18" 7 spokes.

You should be running a 275/40 tire in the rear and a 245/40 in the front.

225/45 and 245/45 would be the way to do it and that a decent strech. I would run 255/40 front and 275/40 rear with a rear roll. Unless you run a narrow rear tire , you will need a roll.

Just pay the $70 and have an experianced place roll them.

Just roll your fenders. If you want wheels with flush fitments, you have to.

Thanks everyone but too bad for me. I did not buy these nice wheels. My friend decided to keep them. He wanted to sell them and then he changed his mind, what a retard lol. Well, guess it is not a right time for me to buy wheels. I'll keep looking then.
