I'm assuming this is all around? what tire size? You will need your fenders rolled in the front depending on tire size even with the +36

You will need to roll your front fenders to avoid hitting the fender/fender liner. Go with the +36 up front vs. the +20 and depending on your ride height and the road conditions, you should be ok with 255/35 up front/rear or 255/35 front and 265/35 rear.

Wheels/Tires

Hey Izzy

Whats up bro, new wheels and/or tires I assume. What kind ya got anyway?

With 18" wheels, and I'm gonna assume you wont use any offsets that are not good ones (recommend 18x9.5x114.3+42) I would def go w/the 225/40-18's for the front tires. When I had my Enkie RP01's years ago the had 225/40-18's on the front and never hit the fender lip. Then when I had my VOLKS made I switched to 235/40-18's in the front and they hit the lip, mainly when I hit the dips on the freeway bridges/overpasses/etc.. Also, if I pull into my driveway to fast w/the wheels cut, entrance ways to stores, small bumps, and while getting in and out of the car. No, but really, like mentioned above I would go w/the 225/40's on the front. I run 265/35's on the rear (18x10.5x_____+__).

Any pictures for us???

With a roll and 245 / 255 short sidewall tire it will easily fit.

You will very likely rub. Maybe not going straight but pulling into a driveway or in a turn, you will.
