Looking at 245/35/20's.

Will they fit? Sounds crazy, but the price is right

Should fit on any 20's, that's atleast 8" wide.

Hi all, looking at http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=330303544449

What size tires should I be looking at?

I have an '06 Shinka FYI.

Educate my ignorant *** on wheels and tires. I am an open (blank) book.

Don't get the Automatic wheels, at least get the 18" OEM wheels.

Shinka's come with 18x8 wheels. The ebay wheel you posted is 16x7 which will not fit your car.

Need help, so the Advan Model 5's Im looking at are 19" with a 45 offset. Question is for all around, 9 wide or 10 wide?

Thanks guy.

^9.5 at +45 would look sweet - IMO tho, i like the concave look so i'd aim at 9 at +30.

up to you though - 10's can fit w/a roll and look nice in the back but i know that 10's in the front at +45 will kind of bubble out of the fender a little. Your call really. Looking for flush, tuck or bubble?

Either they have an auto, they have a non-North American 4 port MT, or they want to go rallying and that's as big a rally tyre as is available.

So the 9 wide are available in a 35+ 40 or 45 offset. My goal is to make them look flush. Going 19".

Please help.

^+35 would give you a very flush look. If you are lowered you will most likely need to roll your fender.

hmmm....+35 may or may not push it all the way out to the fender depending on tire profile. You may need a roll though. That wheel doesn't seem to have a very aggressive offset for it's sizes. Do they come in 9.5's?? i tried looking but couldn't find them.

c'mon, you KNOW you loved that G35 that Steve had in the shop. My first thoughts when I saw it, "HOLY stretched tires BATMAN!" (stretched tires on a 19 x 13 wheel! ) Atilla, you got a pic of that thing?

the Advan only come in 9 or 10, not lowered yet, will be speed kitted.

so out of 35 40 45 for offsets, 35 would be best?

Looking for a flush with fender look.

Model 5's?! whoa....
Those were discontinued last year BUT Yokohama Japan just made available a small supply of them, if you're going to get them you better know someone who can put in the order like YESTERDAY.

Problem is the only stuff they have left in the warehouse are offsets that don't really go well with our car and you can only get what they have left in the warehouse.

So out of the options posted for a 9 wide, 35 40 or 45? 35 would be the best?
