Racing Hart C2

What is the widest C2 wheel that go on an 94? Front/Rear? Also, what tire would you recommend for the car? I was looking at the Proxie T1-S but I'm not sure if a higher rated tire would be recommended. I was also looking at the Racing Hart CP-035R Wheels with sizes of 18x8.5 , 18x9.5" in the front & rear respectively. I was told these fit fine with a FD with 245 & 275 tires.


Thanks all for your help, it was greatly appreciated.

You should look in the suspension forum archives, there's all the info you need.

If you run 18x8.5 and 18x9.5, you will want offsets in the +40 to +50 range. Tire sizes would be 235/40 or 245/35 front and 265/35 rear.

You could also run 18x9 all around with +45 to +50 offsets. Tire size would be 255/35 all around.

As an extreme fitment, you could also run 18x10 rears, +45 to +50 offset, with 285/30 tires.

The Toyo T1-s is an excellent tire and one of the lightest tires around.

Thanks for the reply!

Will there be any problems such as rubbing, running the 18x8.5 and 18x9.5 with the 245/35 front and 265/35 rear tire sizes?

Thanks again!

There shouldn't be if the wheels have the offsets listed above. If you lower the car though, you may or may not experience rubbing, everyone's car is a little different. But those are pretty "safe" recommendations.
