Little help with tire choice on 18's!!!

[rjdavis21]

Im going to be purchasing a set of 18in Racing Hart C2 wheels and I cannot decide which size tires to go with. Im going to go with the BFGoodrich g-Force T/A KDW-2 tire but im not sure what size. My car will be lowered about 1.5in also. I need to know if I should go with 225/45/18 or 235/40/18. I want to get a nice sized tire that will fill in the wheel well nicely but not look to fat. Also wondering if the 235's will rub or not. Any help would be great, im not good with wheel sizes haha. Thanks!!

My ex girlfriend is running 18" Racing Hart c5's (don't remember the offset, and while i love helping out fellow dsmers, i like not calling her better so ## gonna have to search) on her 98 gst with a 235/40..no fitment issues with the exception of having the fenders rolled and she has about a 1.5" drop, so you should be in good shape

There's a wheel and tire fitment guide on www.vfaq.com That should give you the information you are looking for.

No one, without psychic abilities, can accurately tell you which tires will fit without knowing some more information about your car; namely wheel offset, wheel width, and present or future lowering amount.
