they will fit with a max roll no pull, ive been doing research on the exact sizes for a month, with the +12 offset you would be able to run a bigger tire like 285/35 or 295/30,hope dan doesnt mind posting these pictures but the offsets on these ccw rims 18x12 +12 or +13 can remember

ran into a problem today guys I need help (looking at you Royal ) my problem is I cut my fenders last year and separated the inner fender lining from the outer fender making even a mild pull pretty much impossible without the inner liner and outer fender separating further. 
Basically I been told I would have to re weld it back together then pull the fender accordingly and repaint the whole quarter panels. There is no way my paint could be matched well since it was a custom mix, so it basically means I would have to get a whole new paint job done again and I don't have any more money laying around to spend on the car.
Right now the car is sitting on springs temporarily so this isn't the finished product, I will be installing coilovers in about 2 weeks. The look I'm trying to achieve is killing all the fender gap but I'm NOT looking to tuck tires... the problem I'm seeing right now if yall look at the pictures, if I drop it any lower even with spring rates of 10k in the rear and full stiff I still think the fender is gonna make contact with the sidewall of my tire no matter how much camber I add, sittin at -4 in the rear right now both sides.
What should I do ? I don't think I can go any lower without pulling the fenders, even if I add few more degrees of camber fender would still hit tire or possibly even rim, fck I'm pretty pissed at myself for ever cutting the fenders

Thanks! 
Borrowing my friends Eastwood fender roller today...going to mess around w/the rear fenders a little bit. As my car sits now, i can't get my fingertip between the rear tire and fender....but I need to go lower
I know that ATX350 (and I think Royal_T) did the phonebook method and their fenders look pretty good...hmm

Sorry I just now saw this.. Well yeah you are pretty much screwed on your fenders. Once you cut your fenders they lose all their structure only thing and the best option I would do is re-weld your fenders and repaint..
Now I know you don't want to repaint your whole car, so I would suggest smaller tires and adding in a little more camber. That is you best bet.

Carlos went to my body & Paint guy.... the rear has a pull on it but has been resealed and and reshaped to look close to stock without having that "oops I ****ed up my quarter panel" look, due to the fender lip being shaved down, as soon as you try to pull the metal starts separating...
