I ordered new wheels:
Ultralite Nurburgring 18x8.5" ET30 and 18x9.5" ET10. Color Gold.
Car will sit on a quite low stance that rear wheels won't poke too much.
Front tires will be Nankang NS-2 225/40R18. I will add a 20mm spacer to front.

Question is: What size rear tires? I think 235/40R18. But is 245/40 enough? I want minimal stretch and I wouldn't like to add camber. Fenders are already rolled, but not flat though. I have a new paint so i wont pull the fenders.

Default New wheels

Thanks again CL members for all of your help! 20x8.5 and 20x9.5 with 245/35 and 275/30/20. Minimal rub in the rear and no rub up front. Will probably roll the quarters to elimate the rub. Next up.....1" drop!

^, You'll need to find out the widths to give an accurate answer.
I say +40's as of now.

the widths are 8 in the front and 9.5 in the rear. but ur right. i'd guess the front is a 40. the rear is what im tryin to figure out. the wheels looked brand new on his car. but he wasn't around his damn car the whole event at the NSCRA this past Sunday.

i think he was part of the Florida Club Lexus Group.

MB Battles...Trying to get an idea on size right now. I'm going to roll the rear fenders but I don't want too much of a hassle with the fronts. If I lower it I would roll the fronts but I don't want them to rub right now at stock height which size should I go with.

I'm going 18x9.5 +15 in the rear

Fronts I can go 18x8.5 +30 (Leaning towards this)
or
18x9.5 +23
18x9.5 +15

Thinking of running 245/40 in the rear and 235/45 in the front? something like that?
