GT-N's and FD's/SleepR1 agian
The Saga continues, Okay I talked with a guy from volk today and he said no GT-N's sold in the us to an FD have been sold 18x9 with a 44 offset he said that all the GT-N's sold in the US have 18x8 and 18x10 for the rears, okay so where are all the guys with GT-N's on their FD's please respond. I think I need to go with 35 series tires up front since my car is lowerd an inch with H&R springs, right now the rears have 275/35/18. is it possible to go with 235/45/18 on a 18x8 and have it fit correctly, the reason I ask is because if I want the GT-N's with an 18x9 with a 44 offset I have to wait up to 90 days. Also if I go with a 35 series tire up front what happens if I don't go with a 30 on the rear?
Sorry for so many questions after I finally get done with these rims I migth open a rim and tire shop lol
PS: Don't hate me too much SleepR1
Thanks guys

there will be no effect from the 2 rear heights of the tires. there might be an /8th difference, not too noticable to the eye. i had 285/30's and now have 275/35's (rear) s0-3 pole positions. the difference was negligible. i actually have a spankin new pair of the 285-30's in my garage....let me know if you need measurements....

R Xplicit, I hated the way the 235/40/18 looked on my car the tire was way to big for me, Do you have pics of your car besides the ones where you are next to the plane, if that is you so I can see what the tires look like on the car.
Also what price are you looking for on the 285/30/18
and why did you go with 275 instead?
