im no expert either but I posted some wheels a couple months ago and someone told me the the 527's would sit out way past the fenders.

This will help you on tires, I just posted info on going to 18's from 16's and 17's. It's and active topic if you would like to chime in.
Don't know about 18x9's working??

But think of what kind of look you want, if you want that super wide aggressive stance stay with the 8.5 and get the bigger offset I believe. I just ordered mine and forgot what offset I choose; but I got the wide stance one. LOL!

U should be quite safe on the +35 if you are gonna run 225/35 or 40 tyres...If you gonna stretch a 215/35 or 40, Im pretty u wont have issues at all
