Will 17x9 et30 245/40 or 235/40 fit?
Hey team, just looking for some help. I've searched for the specific offset but nothing conclusive. I have Stance coilovers going to lower about 2-2.5 inches on this setup 17x9 et30 245/40 or 235/40. I currently have no fender modification, will I rub or can I plug and play?
Thanks, |
Will 235/35 19 ContiSportContact 5's fit on 19x9 rims without stretch?
|
Stretch is apparently a relative term. I say it will be stretched. Some people will claim that a 205 on a 9" isn't stretched.
|
I don't see that size listed on the TireRack page. But at 245/35/18, the measured rim width is 8.5".
http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....C5XL&tab=Specs Given that you want to fit a narrower tire on a wider wheel, I'll say it's going to be stretched. |
Contisportcontact 5p has it. I did the same thing as you.
|
Currently running: 18x9.5+15 all around wrapped in 225/40/18
Looking for a "meatier" fitment. Any inputs welcomed. :) |

@archwisp They are actually 5P's listed HERE as J8635621 mentioned. Looks like there might be a slight stretch, but it's also rated for 8-9.5" rims.
Seeing they are somewhat in the middle of the tolerable rage, will they be safe just for daily street use and occasional spirited driving? |

So while getting the new wheels installed I discovered that I had a broken rear spring, so I had to do a bunch of suspension work. Ended up installing a set of Koni's with racing beat springs. so here are some pics of the final setup. With no rubbing on any corner and no fender roll. handles really well, I would say an overall bump in handling of around 20% to 30%, and the ride is still very tolerable, just a little bit stiffer than stock.

I ran 245/40s on my 9.5s for a while. They were definitely stretched. I had grip problems but it was probably mostly attributable to a bent toe control arm.

Stretch depends on more factors than just the stated size. The 235 or 245 is more of a guideline than an actual measurement.

Will 18x9+35 fit with 255/40/18?
|
I am running 255 40 r18s on 8.5" wheels and a +45 ofset and that is pretty much the limit without fender roll or lots of camber . I have less than 1 finger width of clearance in the back. And even less in the front with the wheels turned.
|
Will they fit?
The fronts are 8.5" and the rears are 10", Offset is 35. size 20
tire recommendations? Also running stock brakes and stock suspension |
don't do it
|
Rears won't work right?
What About.. .Front: 18x9.5 +12 Rear: 18x10.5 +15 TE37 Reps |
I say not to do something then you ask about something even more aggressive.........
|
sorry, I am new to the wheel specs and understanding the best possible option. What would be a ideal specs fro a wheel? I don't mind if its aggressive. I am going more for show with the wheels just for now and I just wanted to know if either set would even fit with a slight roll of the fenders>....

Rota P45R 18×9.5 +30
will it work? what tire size you guys think will give me the oem tire wall thickness? i dont want to wide im thinking a 235-245 should flush the tire to the rim?? |
Look at the thread in my signature
|
eh.
|
Hi guys!
F/R: 18x9 +20 Tires on those rims would be: Dunno... Stretch the 225/45 ? Or 235? What will do better? I have an option for forged Rays Work Evo4 18x9 +20. Will it fit stock 2004 Japan market SP 4AT? Should I have to roll fenders (looks like so...) or do something even more serious? How it will affect handling? Generally a bad idea? That bad?))) |
I am looking at buying the TE37SL for my RX8 R3 from Nengun.
Here are what they have in stock: RAYS - TE37SL - Nengun Performance Can anyone recommend me a decent 18" wheel and tyre combo? Car is street driven and occasionally tracked. I'm not after hellaflush but drivability and decent looks. My car is lowered 20mm on H & R Springs. Thanks |
