Depends on how low you are wanting to go. It will make the front almost perfectly flush and the rear will have a little tuck.

You're going to have to at least roll your fenders, throw some camber on it, and stretch some tires on there.

Did you not like how it sat with the 18x9 +30 without the adapters?

the adapters were made 5x114 cuz of the wheels i had were 5x114. so i was unable to see how they sat without the adapters. i have researching pics of cars with 18x9.5 with different offsets to see how they sat but some of the pics are kinda hard to see to be able to judge if i like them or not..

O ok, that's makes sense lol. But from what I've researched over the past few months before I put in my order for some works is that +35 and +38 look about the best to me. The rear wheels in 18x9.5 and those offsets could probably use a 10mm spacer to make the wheel sit almost flush with the fender.
