norice4me Posted October 22, 2016 Report Share Posted October 22, 2016 So I have new rims for my car but I need tires for them still. They're 18x9 front and 18x10.5 rear I'm not completely sure what size I want to go with. I'm thinking 295/35r18 rear and 265/35r18 front. I also am wondering how our cars would look with a little bigger tire (like 295/40r18) on a car that's lowered. So post pics of your cars and your tire size/setup. I'd appreciate any help.

Lanter Posted October 24, 2016 Report Share Posted October 24, 2016 I've got 18x10.5 rears with 315 wide toyo proxes tq's. Car is not super low by any means and if I went much lower there would be major clearance issues. I have my rear fenders rolled and it will still on certain low speed maneuvers like exiting my driveway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zach Posted October 24, 2016 Report Share Posted October 24, 2016 I am basically the same but with an 11inch wide wheels and I would be scared to go any lower than I am now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prokiller Posted October 25, 2016 Report Share Posted October 25, 2016 this is my old setup. lowered on some ford racing B-springs (probably). 265/35 nittos up front with 305/35s NT555R's out back. fit great, never rubbed. also had 305/35 mickey thompson ET streets before these without a problem.

Josh@RideTech Posted October 31, 2016 Report Share Posted October 31, 2016 Not an SN but here are my Bridgestone Potenza's 275/35-18. These are actually wider than my 295/35 Nitto 555's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norice4me Posted October 31, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2016 Those look great josh.. I'm considering going with 275/40r18 rear and 245/40r18 front now.. because I'd like to lower my car 2+ inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Posted October 31, 2016 Report Share Posted October 31, 2016 I think FR500's are 10.5" in the rear...but here's a setup I had for a few weeks lol. 315/30 and 265/35. The pics of it really low would be impossible to drive....but the other pics with no sideskirts wasn't too terrible...rubbed in the front if turning while pulling into anything steep.
