Post pics of 18's on FDs.

I have 18x9.5 rears and 18.8.5 front with +35 all around, I was just wondering what tire size and suspension everyone is running to make it look flush. I need suspension but I can't really spend too much because of school . So if you guys can post pics and post your set ups it would be greatly appreciated!


I have searched but didn't really find what I was looking for.

If you want it "flush" you definitely need a spacer with that setup. A 255 tire on my 9 inch wheels was very square, so you can probably run that on the 9.5 and somewhere along the lines of a 245 in the front.
