They make the av06 in 18x8 +35 or +42 and 18x8.5 +35 or +45
Lots of options for a good fit on our cars.

The wheel diameter does not cause you to need camber. As long as you have the proper tire size and don't go too low of offset you will be good.
Ex: you could go 18x8 +42 with a 225/40/18 and have almost an identical fitment as @Michael Sprofero above

Yeah even my mild drop ruined my stock tires really quick. I installed the Skunk2 rear camber kit and got everything aligned. Rides perfect now.

I think he was referring to adding negative camber to make the wheels fit. Shouldnt be needed with a proper fitting wheel

+35 will require fender rolling for sure because they pop out and give the stanced look.

I run +35 on my 8" wheel. No fender work.
Head over to www.willtheyfit.com and see what you are most comfortable with. +42 is the safer option.

I say get the +42 and run the wider tires. You could always get extended studs and run a spacer later if you weren't happy with the "flushness."

Im running 18x8 35 offset, lowered on HR springs, -1 camber up front and -1.8 in the rear, on stock 225/40/18 tires. In the front I bent one of the tabs for the fender liner so the tires would not rub. I didn't do anything in the rear and they just barely rub on really big dips at higher speeds or if I have people in the back. Like....take off the tire shine only barely rub.....lol

18x9 Et 30 mb battles with 215 40 nankangs. Currently rubbing a lil in the front gonna try more camber and spacers or 215 35! Rides good looks great
@ron v go with the 225's I had 18x8 +42 on my old 8th gen with a 2" drop and I did not rub or needed fender work, I had 215's before that and I think the 225's fit the fender well better/makes the wheel look better.

kind of a random offset. you are going to poke quite a bit (41mm more than stock) and likely need fender work to make it fit. tire size will also be an issue, on a 9" wheel you should be running at least a 235 width tire.

- Camber -.2* Front, -.85* Rear [Factory]
Have some slight rubbing in the rear. We can fix it with some negative camber but we're probably going to roll the fender.
