gentlemen,

Will a 18x9.5 +35 work F/R with 245/40? any suggestions on tires here? possible 1 inch drop in the future

should I go down to 18x8.5?

thank you

stick with 18x9.5 +35

go with the 245/40

you can go wider if you'd like. If you're gonna drop 1" you'll still be fine.

thanks Atilla....do you think a Koni/S-Tech combo would be pushing it or am I looking at a roll here?

Atilla

you'll be fine.

If you'd like to up the size in tires tho, i would suggest it as it's a standard precaution.

That's so damn stupid. I wish I could understand this

That would be the same stretch as on my wheels. I'm assuming he's going to be slammed on such an aggressive setup and coilovers. I mean... he could go wider tires but it will require A LOT of work and extra camber.
EDIT: *especially being on 19's also*

Yea exactly

If people didn't want to have to deal with stretch they wouldn't do such aggressive offsets.

Ok well i found out i cant do 18x9.5 so ill go 18x8.5 +35 offset 245/40....i know it will fit but my concern is rubbing on stock suspension since I do autox about 7-8 times a year, if anyone has some first hand experience with this please let me know.
thank you

That will fit fine

Well since i asked the same question except with a wider rim ill go ahead and say that yes it will fit.....OEM tires 225/45/18 but 245/40/18 seem to be the best match for 18x8 and wont throw off ur speedo

JCrane, if it helps, I understand exactly what you are saying. All defined within the word "subjective"

aw man, I missed it.

Voodoo22

looking at 18x10 +49, will they fit on all 4. I assume i may need to roll the fenders which i am ok with. will probably be looking to run a 275/35/18

J8635621

iTrader: (10)

Sure

Danmn858

iTrader: (10)

yup

OK, fairly close to VooDoo22 specs 18x10 +43. I know it'll fit, my question more so is, without coilovers, will I have any rubbing issues? I'm lowered on Megan Racing springs w/stock shocks now. Coilovers are in my budget, but a friend of mine is selling these wheels pretty cheap now...

i have 18x10 +28 with lowering springs not coilovers. I rub but only on dramatic suspension travels.

Chris I don't think you drive very hard if that's the case. Just saiyan. Also no tires are mentioned.

18x9+35 Konig Deceptions
on oem 225's but will change out to something larger.

Oem bilsteins with sprint springs. ~2inch drop.

My research shows 18x9+35 is what a few people are running to get a huge tire to fit at oem height with very slight if at all fender mods.

what about at a 2inch drop with sprints?


If i wont rub with 225's, how wide of a tire can i fit before it rubs all over the place?
