Wheel width/offset/size and tire fitment Q&A thread
#662
Ive got some TSW mondello's that I am going to put on my gs3 and I am wondering what are the best size tires I should go with. The wheels are 20x8.5 +20 front and 20x10 +25 rear. The car is going on coilovers and I am not going to slam the car I want it just enough to tuck some tire.
Without doing any major fender mods what size tires should I go with??
Thanks

Set-up (noob)
First off I am new here and I expect all the new guy flack, but I am not reading through everything right at this moment, but I will in the following week. Here is my situation. I bought a 2005 with 20's on it from the dealer. It looks fine (not my style though) and rides fine, that is until I hit the speed of 60mph+. Then there is all sorts of shaking in my steering column and I am not okay with that, just for the sake of a look. The dealer has some SSR Werfen GT-04 in 19+8.5 and 19+9.5 that he would sell me for 2800. I had them put them on to show me the look. But the mechanic said he was worried about the rubbing on the rear fender and said I would have to get it rolled to avoid rubbing. I want to have a 45 aspect to alleviate the shaking while driving, but I was told I will not be able to run any more than a 35 with a stock config. My question is should I roll it to get this steal? Should I drop to a 18 and lower it by 1.5? Then what brands do you recommend (total noob in this area)?
Thank you for the advice and counsel.

Bought some new rims for my 2gs, F: 18x9.5 +35 R: 18x10 +35 I'm on Teins CSv1 and have all my fenders rolled and pulled slightly. Would 255/35/18 Michelin PSS fronts and 305/35/18 MT Et streets work? Looking to get 600+rwhp when my build is done. Any advice is appreciated.
