I wonder if I may need to run camber kit in the rear.
Currently debating on coils? Bc or Megan ez.?
Im gonna be running the same setup but with 255 in the back. 225/245 the rolling diameter maybe off I believe. Also go with BC from what I've read. I bought the EZs but the spring rates are a lot softer than BC which may cause rubbing. Post pics when you get them on.

Oh thanks. What's your suggestion for best tire sizes front and rear. 255/35 and 225/35?

I suggest 225/35 front and 255/30 rear most of the awd run 30 series in the rear to match the front diameter. With BCR go with a 14k/12k on aggressive setup. The ride will be stiffer.

I'll take thin tire over a snap differential it up to you. With AWD its a chance you take.

Hey guys,

I'm interested in picking up the stock 18's.

These are the dimensions:

255/40 R18 x 2
225/40 R18 x 2

Would there be any issues with the AWD system?

Hey guys,

I have the oem 2011 17"x 8" wheels. What's the best size tires to put on them over the oem size tires?

I'm dropped on H&R springs and have about a 1-1.5" gap left. Ideally I would like to run with a bit thinner sidewalks to close that gap a bit. I wish I had those 18"s but I do like the comfort the 17" provide.

Also, what sizes would be needed so that it doesn't affect the odometer or the awd system?

I'm also planning on getting spacers to make the wheels sit more flush. With that, I will get extended studs to keep it safe. Please correct me if I'm wrong about that. Thanks.

Or should I just look for someone willing to trade for oem 18" wheels rather than all that hassle?
