Thanks fellas, I'm actually redoing it in the summer when it's warmer in satin/matte pearl white.

Accents actually made it easier since I didn't wrap everything up.

I'm planning on going square 18x10.5+15. Drop will be at maximum 1'. What all will I need in terms of fender rolling or camber or toe? Tires will be about standard size. Not too meaty or stretched.

What are the benefits or disadvantages to running a square 18x10.5 rather than a 18x9.5 front and 18x10.5 rear?

All depends on the tires you run. Really no need unless you plan to run a 285 or wider front tire.

You know they really depends on the tires. and with a Z you will not get more oversteer, just less understeer.

i like a 10" wheel with a 275 tire. 275 looks a little stretched on a 10.5

Has anybody tried 285/35 front and back on square 10.5s? How'd it work out? I'm thinking either that or 275/35.
