Did you try a heat gun? That typically takes care of it, but that is a tricky area to lay vinyl.

you probably wont even need a stretch on a 18x10 rear. i'd recommend an 11 with negative offset, check out http://www.rimtuck.com/

Depends on what your going for... But honestly I wouldn't run a 10 in the rear at minimun a 11 with a 245/35/18 and a proper stretch size would be a 225/40/18 on a 10 you could go with a 215 but it would be a aggressive stretch and depending on the wheel might not work.

Offset will depend on whats already done to your quarter panels and what you use your car for.
a 11 wide with a 0 offset -|+ 5mm will be perfect for a mild roll and minimum camber with a good look. I'd say start there and progress as you get more familiar with it.

I guess I can't find myself doing 225/40/18 rear with 18x 10. just seem not good looking. I might just end up with bigger width. Thank guys. I already got the front with 18x10 -3. Reason why I ask is I got emotion XD9 and it come with only 18x10 highest. was thinking doing -13 but don't know about tires size.

you could run a 10 in the rear, its just not very aggressive looking at it from the rear. i ran 18x9.5 -19 with natural camber and had no fender work other than shaving my fenders which wasnt needed. that was also a 225/40. 18x10 -13 would be the same poke as my setup. you could probably even run a 235/40 with a slight pull with the phone book.

Thank you for the replied, I think I now know where to start with the rear since my only choice with the xd9 is 235/40/18 in the rear. Would 245 still give that stretch look? I might should just save up for ssr sp1 or ms1 with better offset and width lol.

p.s already pull and roll all around.
