Just purchased a set of 18x8.0. What size tires should I get to go with it? I've only have the 17" stocks before and they're running 225/45/17. I've read someone on here using 245/40/18, is that the OEM spec? Thanks.
Assuming yours is Awd. The OEM tire size would be 225/40R18 for all 4.
Thanks for the info. Any idea if it'll work with a higher aspect ration? 40's are thin, I was thinking of 50.
225/45R17 and 225/40R18 are pretty close in diameter. If you'd like your speedometer to remain accurate and your vehicle's handling to remain OEM, I'd stick with the 40's.
Finally received a couple replacements and was able to mount these bad boys up today. Here are a couple of rough photos. I'll try to post some better pictures when I have some extra free time.

i was looking for these indy 500 tires, and positive feedback? Would these tires has the rim lips protected edge?
Sounds good.
The shop who swapped my wheels didn't put enough air in them. I foolishly didn't bother checking the PSI's after the tires were installed and assumed a "Japanese specialty" repair shop would at least heed the recommended manufacturer PSI's. As a result my low tire pressure warning light came on yesterday while getting groceries (first car I've owned with this feature). I thought maybe I had a leaking tire, until I realized all four were around 30-32 PSI.
Glad the light went on to warn me before any damage was done!
