Widest tires I could run with this set-up???
Hey guys I have a 93 FD with Eibach Springs.
Wheels are:
Front: 18x8.5 +45 offset
Rear: 18x9.5 +55 offset
What are your recomended tire sizes? I am thinking either:
Fronts: 235-40-18 or 245-35-18
Rear: 265-35-18 or 275-30-18
I like the 275 rears for the extra width but I like the 265/35 for the extra height which will help with my gearing. I also want to make sure I have no rub.
Input from the tire experts would be appreciated.
Thanks!!!!!!!!

The wheels alone are going to be a tight fit with stock sized shocks/springs vs smaller 2.5" coilvers. You may actually require a spacer especially in the rear to push out that +55mm to something like 45-50mm offset.
These two will almost keep the same overall diameter if your worried about optimal abs performance at all.
235/40/18 front
265/35/18 rear
