Deep Dish and not Pizza!

I love the look of wheels with lots of lip on them. I have just bought my MZ4 coupe not long ago but I want to exchange the wheels. I want to go with some serious wide wheels. I would love to put some 9.5" on the front and maybe some 10.5" on the rear. I would like to keep the original suspension and 18" wheels. (More rubber nice ride!) Please give me a guideline as to what offset I need to keep the rubber under the car? I really don't like the tires sticking out from the car. Any suggestions?

Thanks
Paul

if you wanna go deep dish, and keep the factory ride height, it will look really bad. you will also have to play with camber setting to make 9.5 and 10.5 fit without rubbing, which will also cause uneven tire wear. this setup will also really slow down the car and make it feel sloppy. it will tramline alot more as well. what brand wheel and price point are you looking at? from my past cars, a good quality wheel setup with polished lips with run you at least 4500 plus tires.
