Fits perfect and tires are fat and aggressive looking. Couldn't be happier!

Is that stock ride height?

I'm wondering if anyone is running a stock suspension setup with these wheels? If so what tyres are you running to fill the guards?

Im unbiased between square and staggered setups, so any recommendations are welcome!

Easy fit especially stock suspension with 245/40 and 275/40-18s.

You could run square tires unless you have VDC which may not like square.

I wouldn't count on the OP answering given he was last on about 3.5 years ago but I'd venture to say that suspension was stock height.

Hey thanks for the quick reply! The only reason square appeals to me is because you can rotate the tyres, but is that actually going to give me a significant amount of added life to them?

ATM I'm running 225/45R18 in the front and 245/45R18 in the rear on stock touring wheels. Using the wheel tyre calculator I found that if I was to run 255/40R18 front and 275/40R18 rear I would keep almost the exact same diameter on the tyre.

Oh I didn't even realise VDC may have issues :/
