Default Another 285/35 question?

I've been reading the forums for a while now and from reading the 285/35-19 setup I would either have to cut the inner lip on the fender or roll them. I figured out that If I had a +10 offset wheel on the 10.5" (width) it would sit flush to the stock wheel, but then I don't know about rubbing problems on the inner part of the wheel because I moved about a 1/2 an inch over to the inner side.

I haven't seen many +10 offsets for wheels ususally 20-35 range. So I was wondering does anyone here have a 285/35 setup without having to roll or cut the fenders. Probably not, but just in case there's someone out there, could you tell me your offset and If you've lowered the car or not and by how mcuh.

Another question If I can't run the 10.5's then I might go 9.5's. So, I was wondering which kind of rim (perferably made by Racing Hart or Volk) that has atleast a 2 inch lip on it that's a 9.5 wheel. I know the 10.5 usually have 2-3 inch lips but the 9.5 wheels usually have 1 in.

I understand that the 285/35 wheel issue has been discussed somewhere but not in full detail or maybe I haven't noticed it.

Thanks

How did you stay only 1mm offset away from stock and have no rubbing issues? I have an 03 touring so the rears are 245's going to 285's that's a 40 mm increase (20mm on each side if you stay with the 30 offset.) I understand not rubbing on the inner side. Did you roll your fenders or cut them or do you have a different camber angle and your wheels are 19" right?. Thanks for your help

i didn't cut or roll fender or fix the camber issue either. I know the camber is off a bit but too lazy to put on the SPC kit.
