All depends on your wheel offset...

Yeah, pretty sure you could run a 235 up front...

just need rolled fenders and a lot of rear attention

On my 9.5 and 10.5 I am running 245/35 all around.

I also had a setup of 235/35 on my 9.5

I think the 45 might be a little too tall also.

Munchy- How much stretch are you willing to run?

Keep in mind Sifu is talking about 19" tire profiles. Just add 5 to the second number lol.

i dont mind running stretch but im sketched out cause the roads in Montreal are **** i dont want my tire ripping off the wheel

judging from some old tiltmode pics, 245 looks fine in terms of stretch

ok so 245/40 and 225/40 it is!

ill for sure post up pics but im talking a few months from now, im just ordering stuff now and storing it in my basement

235 will be more flush....225 will be a little sunken probably. Plus it will have more sidewall for those crap roads

Right on J!

Forgot he was asking about 18's with his setup..

I agree with the 235. Just to be safe for crappy roads.

I would get 245's all around. If you get smaller tires up front, they will look sunken, trust me. Rear is going to look great.

thats perfect thanks.. but would i get more stretch if i ran 235?

and ross dawg when u mean sunken do you mean if i went with 245 all around with the 17x9 front and 17x10 rear they wont be sunken in the front?
or should i just go 17x10 all around like NYC Drift King.

i kno that sounds confusing but w/e

Serious question? Of course a thinner tire would be more stretched. Am I misunderstanding something?

That license plate reeks of badass I take it by the stickers posing as bodywork that this guy's car is stationary? Looks awesome but it must be a pain in the *** to live with, this is why I wound up with air as I can go that low and still raise it up enough to get over stuff. Either way, diggin' it and diggin' the plate for sure.

Hmm... I'd advise against getting those wheels until you can get some coilovers. I think the RSR's will be low, but they won't be as stiff as you might like them to be.
