Since my set up was very similar... i just had 8.5 up front

1. will they fit without camber kit?
yes... you will need that natural camber in the rear to fit those 9.5's
2. can i stretch 215/35's all the way around?
yes but i recommend going wider on the front if ur gonna do 215. its jut gonna look like u have a regular wheel and then a crazy stretched wheel on back

3. do i need to roll fenders and rear quarter?
with mines, i just had the rear quarters rolled
4. has anyone done it before?
im pretty sure if u search, i can name at least 10-15 people on here that have done it

5. do u have any suggestions?
go wider up front...

and if its the wheels that i think your looking at, look at my recent FS thread. you might find it there cheaper... WITH TIRES

so you have to run neutral camber with 18x9.5. What if you have cambers?

1. will they fit without camber kit?
if your slammed, i think you can run the rears with no camber, but i highly recommend it.

2. can i stretch 215/35's all the way around?
i believe so, but then again, i don't know anything about tires atm. still studying for my set up too.

3. do i need to roll fenders and rear quarter?
it'll be best to roll your fenders, for the rear, your mos def gonna have to roll/relocate/shave the rear bumper tab.

4. has anyone done it before?
yes its been done

5. do u have any suggestions?
should go wider in the front as well. imo, it'll look funny if your front is sunk while your rear isn't.

so you have to run neutral camber with 18x9.5. What if you have cambers?

with 18x9.5 i suggest running cambers. If your slammed, your camber would be about -3 which mines is right now without a camber kit.

thanks guy i might do 18x8 up front then

there is no way your gonna fit a 9.5 with 0 degree camber. your gonan need camber

If the front is 8.5, why a wider tire on the front and not on the back.

Wouldn't it make more sense to have a wider tire on the back so the back doesn't look overstretched?
