Im planning on getting 18x7.5 rims this spring for my tsi. Id like to know what size tires will fill my gap best, i wont as little to no gap between my fender. As the title says i have eibach sportlines paired with kyb agxs. I will not be taking it to the track, just street driving but still want something kind of sticky. What size would you recomend and what brand of tire. Thanks alot

(I searched, found nothing)
 
I also have 18x7.5 and the largest tire i can fit is 225/40/18. without rubbing.
different tire manufactures vary in size a little so you may be able to go to a 45 series in some. I have the fusion zr1 right now. Bridgestone. hope this helps ya out
 
I run 18 x 7.5 with 38m backspacing. They fit great, but I would not want a 35m backspacing. With 38m they look perfect and come out just to the fender edge. I have nitto 555 225/40/18 and the rear fender lip just barely rubs the outside sidewall after I put the camber shims on the rear. Get this size wheel and tire with a backspacing between 38-45, trying to get the lowest (38 or 40) for the wheels you want and you should not have a problem with fitment.
