Best rim/tire for straight line
I'm thinking about getting some 18s and wrapping them in R888s for better traction. What offset/width/camber do you guys suggest for best straight line performance?

Offset won't make a bit of difference for straight line traction...I would say there is no such thing as straight line performance.

A 10.5" or 11" is about as wide as you can go without poking. You just need to get the offsets right.
10"et28 has been done before with a 275 and rolled fenders. I don't see why you couldn't fit 11et40 with a 295 since its pretty much the same fitment. You also have to make sure you clear the strut. |
