Also BloMyS14 is running RPF-1 18x10.5 +15 Front 18x10.5 +0 Rear Kumho V710 285/30/18 Front and Rear

I believe I could pull off a 10mm in rear and 5mm up front with 40 tires with fender rolled. If I do go bigger I think I have to go with a 35 tire and drop the car some more.

If you look at the pictures and the type of tire he is running I think that will explain to you why he is able to fit those on his car. Those sidewalls are extremely thin, and that tire looks to run on the narrow side. Not to mention you have no idea what his camber specs are.

Thats what I said read it my quote again bro. I'm not worried about the front camber but only the rear. I will be buying my own camber kit and doing adjustments myself.

Also hes a 10.5 wide rim, if it was smaller he could fit a bigger tire with a little lift of the cars suspension. I'm running 9.5 a whole inch smaller but it does make a huge difference.

Well any ways this is the set up I will be doing. (If I can fit it.) I'm looking for the stiffest rear shocks for my Z that money can buy.
Tanabe GF210
Rota P45r +20 around 18X9.5 5mm spacer up front 10mm in the rear= +15 up front +10 in the rear.
Goodyear eagle F1 255/40or35/ all around

I will go from there and see how it will look

I'm not sure what it is that you are trying to accomplish. I also believe our definitions of what constitutes a "wide" tire is different. In any case. good luck to you.

I run 305/30/19 rears on a 10.5" wheel and haven't touched the fenders. It easily fits with the right offset wheel. Stock camber.

So after the fender roll and pull, you can fit the 295 w/o rubbing? Still at stock camber and height?

theres a dude on here that rolls fenders in the 818. Just search for "fender rolling in the 818" or something like that. Also, check out zilvia.net, theres a couple reputable guys on there that roll fenders in socal.
