So I just received my wheels and I want to know what tire sizes I should run. I have a stock body s4 fc I plan on rolling and pulling I am assuming I am going to need a bit of a stretch to fit the fronts Wheel specs are 18x9.5 +20 all round My goal is stance but with the least amount of rub as possible. Thanks in advance

 

your front wheels are much too wide. a 9.5" wide wheel should have at least a 265 width tire on it.

 

And a +20 offset on front is going to require a LOT of fender pull.

Not to mention that such a wide rim and big tires is going to kill the handling.

 

that would be the minimum?

I plan on pulling the **** out of them and I really dont care to much about handling my other FC is whats that for I just want good stance and aggressive wheel fitment its going to be a going around town car.

 

225/40
215/40 front if your up to it.

Enjoy

 

Seriously? That's what I have on my 7" wide rims.

 

thank you man It was cool meeting you at sevenstock Idk if you remember me or not but I came up and said hi when we where waiting for parking, I recognized your car from your sig on zilvia.

215 is one hell of a stretch haha you don't think that might be a little dangerous?

 

my car came with 215/40 on 18x10 lol
I run 225 now and I have no worries.

 

"Don't care about handling"?
I don't get it, why does a town car need so much rim/rubber then?

 

Yes. Otherwise there's no reason to have such a wide wheel... Wide wheels equals wide tires, right? Why would you put wheels that don't fit on the car without body modifications and tires that don't fit on the wheels that don't fit?

 

up front? but you also have a wide body

for stance??

 

my car came with stock fenders just major pull, but the rims are 18x10+17 anyways
215/40 with stock fenders pulled.. when i threw 225/40, they caught onto the stock fenders.

 

okay awesome thanks man that's what I will do then,




anybody else got any tips or tricks that could help please fell free to chime in.

that's a pretty cool calculator thank you!!

 

okay so earlier tonight I jacked the car up took off the one of the wheels on the front of the car and mounted one of my new wheels and it pokes a bit but I was expecting that. I noticed one thing though My rim is like a center meter away from my coil-over so I am assuming I am going to need to run a small spacer? the rim clears but just barley I don't understand I am running such a low offset is it just because the car is jacked up or is a spacer needed?

 

wait til you turn the steering wheel and see it hit the lower control arm =\
well I got mazdatrix angle kit, id imagine it being worse for those with modded knuckles for drifting.

 

is that going to be a problem that I am going to run into?? besides the coilovers everything else is stock as far as suspension goes.

 

anyone else wanna chime in?

 

If they are that close than a spacer is probly needed just to be safe. That probly means that u will be tht much more poked out. Any pics? That may help.

 

for now just these tomorrow I will take some nice detailed ones with a real camera not with my gay cell phone
