New wheels for the TII
 
2 Attachment(s)
Just got some 18X8 wheels for the TII. 225/40/18 tires on them. What's the widest tire size i can put on a 8" wide wheel? Thanks

Nice!

8" wide wheel, you could probably try to run 235s, MAAAYBE 245s at the most.

Are those real Blitz wheels? They look sweet at any rate.

im 17x7.5 and im running 245s in the rear.... but the 225s in the front r just a lil too big...

frnt 4 me: 225/45/zr17
rear 4 me: 245/45/zr17

man if i had 8" wide rims id put one hell of a STRETCH ON THERE...i love stretched tires :P...

Yeah, I run 225's on the stock (7") rims, so 245 should definately fit on 8" wheels.

try a 235 up front and a 255 out back... if your offset is correct and the alignment/camber is spot on then you will have no problems with that setup.

the spokes look too beefy... are they blitz knockoffs?

It's a 40 offset.. What's the widest i can fit on them?

youll need spacers. i got 18x8 inch wide rims up front with 235's and 18x9.5 inch wide out back with 255 with 40 offset... its the wrong offset for the setup so i had to run inch and a quarter spacers up front and inch spacers in the rear, yeah they stick out a little but dont worry next paycheck the gps kit and 30mm fenders are coming in....
