Nick340xi_qc · 05-22-2009, 08:22 PM

I just bought Vmr Vb3 and I wonder what can i put ?
my buddy told me
with 18 X 8.5 and 18X 9.5
I can put 225 front and 245 rear
that's the max he can assure me before it gets into the fenders
I think I can go a bit widder ?!?

You can put those tire sizes on but you should go just a bit larger for your set up. I would suggest this:

Fronts: 235/40-18
Rears: 265/35-18

That should be the best bet! Can't wait for pictures

Do the oem size, 225/40 and 255/35. Or you can go with the 235/265 combo.

You can safely go up to a 275 rear at stock height on sedans. 235's are the widest I generally recommend for the fronts.

Have you seen 245/275 been done on a coupe (18" V710 specifically)? If so, any rubbing in front? I know I can make the rear work with some fender roll.
