I should mention I ran 30mm spacers in the rear to make it look semi-normal. Lol

[QUOTE=Danmn858;4503595]woah woah woah. Why would you run such a tiny sidewall? That's absurd. It's gonna look and feel terrible.
i dont really know alot about tires. im getting a coilover after i get the wheels i just want to make sure i wont have any problems after the drop. so what do you think is a nice sidewall height. thanks |
Do a 245/40/18.
|
Eibach Springs ~ 1.2 inch drop
18x8.5 255/40 40 inset 18x9.5 275/35 45 inset Basically the Enkei PF01's |
Don't go staggered and the front tires would be taller than the rear. You tell me if that would look stupid. Do either the front or rear wheels all around.
|
and 275 is a pretty large tire for a 9.5" in wheel.
|
Hmm...if I remember correctly it fits better than a 215 on 12" wheels.

But 275 is really meaty for a 9.5, wont there be give in the sidewall? |
Probably but it's roughly equivalent to 245/40 on the stock wheels and we know how everyone feels about that. 275s all around is a shit ton of tire for non FI or tracked car.
|
Glad we agree. lol
|
Need some advice.. will this fit? I'm pretty sure it will.. but would I need a fender roll?
Front: 18x9.5 +22 with 245/40/18 tires Rear: 18x10.5 +22 with 275/40/18 tires. Replies to this determine whether I purchase this set of wheels or not. :/ |
I'm pretty sure you aren't pretty sure it fits
|
It's the offset right? And tires too big ?
|
Yea basically everything and you didn't say suspension mods
|
Sorry, knew I forgot something. The only suspension mod I have is Powertrix coilovers.
|
If you're buying it as a package off a 350z like I figure you are, I'd say pass. Rear tire is a little tall and a little wide
|
G35, nice guess though :P My searches tell me it will need a fender roll, and/or different tires..
|
By the way guys thanks for the info! I got my setup that fits now. The set is as I said before, 18x8.5 fronts and 18x10 rears. 235/40's on the fronts and the problems I had with the rears which I had 235/50's. the 50's were way to big and were getting destroyed by my fender/bumper mounting joint. I asked for sizes recommendations here and got some good ideas. I tried the 235/40's but it was impossible to get the bead to seat on the rim, tires were just too low of a profile to stretch onto the rim and lacked the necessary width.. Got a 245/40 and tried it, was a stretch but did get them to fit. Looks fantastic too. So set up now consists of fronts: 18x8.5-235/40 and rear: 18x10-245/40's for reference for anyone on here needing the info.
|
Thanks for the info Reaper, care to post some pictures? What I'm looking at is very similar to your rim (18x10-245/40 +25 vs 18x10.5-275/40 +22). How much of a fender roll was required?
