Why don't you want to roll the fenders?

18x10.5 +22 is about the max out back, front go for 18x9.5 +15ish

well I don't have the experience or the right equipment to do the rolling.

am thinking to go 18X9.5 all around with 235 front and 255 in the back, would that still give me the aggressive look?

Show me a photo of the "aggressive look" you would like on your car. That term gets thrown around a fair bit these days haha.

I can guarantee there is someone local to you that can roll your fenders. Where you from?

haha well its the term "aggressive look" is just something I pick up reading magazines :P....it is just the wide look of the tires & wheels on the car gives it this "mean/aggressive look" lol <<< "mean" works too

Haha, used a pic of my good buddy Jeff's car.

That is the aggressive and stretched look. I suggest spending some time in the aggressive wheel and tire thread (check general media share) and get a taste of what that's all about.

You will certainly need more aggressive wheels then what you have in mind though.

he got an amazing looking car!

going wider seem to cost a lot more than I thought lol

I guess am just going to go with 18X9/9.5 +20 front and 18X9/9.5 +22 back, you think this would be good?

BTW, I found this website and I find it useful... http://www.rimsntires.com/specs.jsp

18x9.5 +22mm will be an easy fit out back. You could probably go a bit more aggressive even.
