Here is some info to get you caught up, I have rim sizes 18X9.5 all around with a +12 offset. I cant decide what tires I should run on these, I was thinking 245/35/18 front and 275/35/18 rear. What tire size would you go with? Would a 245 fit on a 9.5 rim good or would it be strected to hell? Any suggestions would be great.

thanks in advance

You have an advantage because you do not have to worry about VDC.

275mm is perfect for a 9.5 inch wheel. So a safe range is 275 plus or minus 20mm or 255 to 295mm. Within that range there are lots of possibilities.

 

what about 245 on a 9.5 rim... I think that is my main concern.

 

A lot members are running that setup on a 19 inch rim... It will looked a little streched though...

 

i'd get 40 series

 

I'm not sure if 40 will rub or not though....

 

i am also looking at this and this is what it says on the Nismoparts website

P245/40R18 (18 x 8.5 wheel) or P275/40R18 (18 x 9.5 wheel).

so 275 in the rear looks perfect but the front is definetely a concern

 

I gave my recommendations above.

 

I know and I appreciate it but I would like to see what others think also.

 

TireRack.com has good information under "Specs", if the tire you want is on their site. For example, this random Yokohama tire spec page shows 245/35 ZR18 fitting on rim widths of 8-9.5", and 275/35 ZR18 fitting on rim widths of 9-11".

 

good find thanks, looks like 245/275 for me
