Outside aggressive fitment is so old. Inner aggressive fitment will be some next level ****!

Damn, it's difficult to find wheels to test fit in these specs as well. v.v

Wheel/Tire Setup:

Enkei RPF1 18x9.5et45 w/ a 255-40-18 tire.


Would this work with (no rubbing):

-stock suspension

-Tein H-tech's w/ Koni yellows

???

From what I've read, it should be ok, but I'm not 100%

you'll be fine. Even if you rub, it would only be slightly at full load. You may roll your fenders if you're really scared. It's really easy.



p.s. - I really believe the answer to this thread should be "YES, IT WILL FIT...IF YOU HAVE THE MONEY/ABILITY"

Why not 275/35/18?

Atilla - Difference between *can* it fit, and *will* it fit

Thanks! That's what I needed to know. That's as big as I can see myself going. I've done some fender rolling before and have local access to one. I'd just rather not if I don't have to.

Will they sit flush?How can I make these more agressive if not? how many mm on spacers?

I Have 225/45/18 tires. I am not lowered right now. Willing to roll fenders.

With expensive wheels like BBS, Volk, etc I would recommend getting what fits and not using spacers as it will give you a bigger lip and bigger is always better. Those will fit but I'd suggest 245/40/18. When you lower the car, you can put 10mm spacers and roll the fenders.

rpf1's 18x9.5 + 38 all the way around.
Looking at getting Stance GR coilovers

Im getting new tires. Either 245/40/18 or 235/40/18's would like to stick with the 245's so maybe a 245/35/18?

What kind of things am I going to have to do if any? (with rubbing issues)

1. Enkei doesn't make that size (or it was a special groupbuy I was unaware of)
2. It depends how low you go with the coilovers.
3. 245/40 is the much better choice out of those (no mods needed)
4. No reason to have that narrow of a tire. I'd go 265/35 or 275/35 and roll the fenders (maybe trim the rear bumper tab a little bit)
5. Your sig has a typo...it's wheelflip not wheepflip
6. Your name makes me think of a fart gone wrong.
7. I hope I answered all your questions fully.

I have no (current) suspension modifications

I'm looking at 18x10/255 +35 front and rear.

Now, the million dollar question: Will it fit, and if not, what do I need to do in order to fit 18x10's on my car.

1. Sorry. +38 is what I meant. *fixed*
2. As low as I can without major modification.
3. a 245/40 is what is in my eyes, thanks
4. Yeah I kinda thought a 235 was a little small..
5. *fixed*
6. My last name is Scharte sounds like Schar-tea and some people call me Schartz.
7. You did your best. I appreciate it. Thanks

Okay so i'm looking to get the XXR 527 18x8.75 +35 offset, Tires are 225/45/18's. Not looking for anything super aggressive, but better than stock..
Right now im on stock suspension but will be throwing some Tein S-techs on within the next few weeks. Will this work?
And to be honest i don't really want to have to roll my fenders or anything.. If this won't work then i can just go with the XXR 522's

What would have to be done in order for these to fit: 19x10 +28 235/35 %90
19x11 +11 245/45 %90. These are coming off of a 350z so I'm not sure if they would fit at all. Previous owner was on bags and had (from the looks of it) mean fender rolls.
