Hello everyone... I thought I might get more views over here, but if this is the wrong place for this then please transfer this post... Any ways, I am planning on buying some 18" OZ Superleggera... The front will be 18 x 8 offset + 45mm offset and rears will be 18 x 9 +55mm offset .... I want to know the widest I can go out in the back and the front with out making the tire looking too fat... I think the widest I can fit out back is a 265 tire... So i might get that or a 255 but have no clue about the front. Also I'm going to be lowered on koni yellows (lowest perch) and tein s-tech springs do you think I will have any rubbing issues? I don't mind rolling my fenders if I have to. I also would like to get the darker of the two colors but it seems like tire rack only has the shiny silver color available. Does any one know where else to get these wheels for around the same price as tire rack is selling them for and possibly with the darker color? I'm trying to think if there is anything I'm missing here... Basically for the tires I want them be really wide but just not overly done... So if you guys could help out with tire sizes for the front and rear.... Any other opinion or even pics would be great... Thanks in advance

 

I would also like the ti gunmetal color... Where can I get those?

 

IIRC from AW...the gunmetal version was discontinued.

I could be wrong tho.

 

I think 225 F 255 R should be good.

 

I think your correct

 

I am running 225 front/265 rear on mine. The 265 fits very well.

 

A 225 in front with 8" wide wheel and +45 offset dropped on tein s tech's will rub. If you roll your fenders you will be OK.

 

Moving to the Tire and Wheel forum.

 

I had the exact set up. I ran 225 in the front and 255 in the back. I did lower the car by 0.9inch wiht tein flex.

I did not like the feel of the car. The roads in Boston are too much for low profile tires and 18" wheels.

I switched to Volks ce28n 17" and I am loving it.
