18×11 +8mm 5×114.3

I want to run a beefy set up on tires.
Would I have to do any fender work to make this work with these specs?

I'm running 18x9.5 +10 front with 245 tires and I don't rub at all. Lowered on swift spec r springs.

Gtkiller, no rubbing at all

chrischhorn · 04-27-2015, 05:01 AM

+10 on front is gonna require some fender rolling and possibly pulling even with stretched tires with a decent amount of camber. 18x9.5 +35 and I was able to run 285/35 tires on front with no rolling, or pulling the fenders. but I was running -2.8 camber for autocross.

my current setup is 245/40 front and 275/35 rear on the 18's. It would look a lot better with some springs but the handling and the acceleration are beyond better than stock...could have gone with the 285 but i didn't had time to buy them. Looking to buy cosmis wheels lol

Correct. If you're wanting looks a 255 will stretch on a 9.5 rim, if you want handling then a 265/35 or 275/35 is great.. there is a guy running 285/35 and 295/35 nt05 on here check his out. I think the page before this
