Work Meister S2R, 18x8, 18x9; Toyo T1-S 225/40, 245/35
Could have gone 255 on the rear but 245 was same OD as OEM S02.
Here is what I looked at and the amount the rim sticks out past the OEM rim:
18" Work S2R F: 0.9075" R: 0.8287"
17" Work EM F: 0.6181" R: 0.7362
17" Buddy Club F: 1.1437" R: 0.8287"
18" SSR C F: 1.0256" R: 1.1437"
17" Volk CE28N F: 0.6969 R: 0.8287"
The Volk and Buddy Club are the lightest. Then Work EM, SSR, S2R Tire weights also vary a lot. The S02 have a tread wear of 140, the Toyo T1-S carry a 280 tread wear.
Next set of rears, go 255/35/18. The 225/40/18 has a 25 inch diameter, won't hurt anyone to match it with the 255/35/18 (also 25 inch diameter). You will have more tread in rear also.
