What 18" wheels are best for 2007 AWD IS 250. Non staggered set up
Hello Guys,
My name is Dami and I live in Nigeria. I drive an AWD IS 250. I recently bought 18x8 to replace my stock 17's. My 18x8 rims are brand new black Touren Matt Black wheels. 40mm offset. While I will be running a non-staggered set up, will 235/40/18 tires all round bulge out of the arches? I don't want it to have a silly 4x4 SUV look but which tires are my best?
Second, when I make sharp u turns, the front wheels jerk like they will pull out. Is that Normal?
Lastly, there seems to be a squeaky noise from the back roof. Does this happen to anyone?
And why does my car say Approx Miles is 235mi on a full tank!
SOMEBODY HELP!!!!!!

You should be fine with 235/40/18s.
My front wheels never feel jerk like they'll fall or pull out during U-turns.
Squeaky noise from the back roof? I've never experienced it in my car. The roof doesn't move so I can't imagine it squeaking.
The car's approximated mileage is based on your average MPG recorded on the computer. X Litres or Gallons/ X Kilometers or Miles a Liter or Gallon = approx miles.
Mine reads out only about 550 km on a full tank.
