Default Widest and lowest offsets on Z

What's the consensus on widest and lowest offset wheels you can run on the Z? I've seen 9.5 +22 and 10.5 +22 TEs, but someone mentioned these aren't correct for the car and I want to know why because those were the sizes I plan to run. Also, what are the average tire sizes you guys are running, thanks!

The 9.5 +22 and 10.5 +22 are correct as reccomended by Volk, the only catch is you'll need to roll the fender in the rear to accomodate the rim. I have this setup as do a few other people on this forum. It's a perfect setup, sits perfectly flush with the fender, and looks great with the deep dish in hte rear with hte 10.5's

Default good lookin out matix

It will still need rolling if going with a 275 stretched over a 10.5? That's pretty aggressive. Don't want to roll the M's fenders either but barely made the 10s fit. Any pics of this setup would be appreciated!

Default Question

What exactly does the term "Roll the fender" mean?

Folding up the inner lip in the fender well so it doesn't rub on the tire. Cheap alternative to tubbing it.
