I have an 04 Track Model and just replaced the tires.

Front 245/40/18
Rear 275/40/18

I could have gone with a lower profile in the front (35), but I decided to keep the 40.

The rear tires look awesome with that 275 width.

Default I jus got some esr 18 inch 9.5 width at positive 22 offset

I wanted to know if 245 35 or 40 would be best for this i havent staggered anything running square rims I jus ordered waiting for shipping. anyone can let a hand to a fellow over here. there's no vdc fuse in the vdc box inside the fusebox by battery. wondering if it will be all good with the 245 35 or 40 r 18. if not any feedback would be wonderful.

13 year dead thread, What wheel specs? Most run a 255/40 275/40 combo

Unless you want that dumb stretch look

Why not just get stock sized tires, 225/45 front 245/45 rear... Its not like your wheels are super wide, they will be cheaper and fit fine, and no worries about traction control...

But yeah 245/40/18 fit fine in the front, that's what I have on 9.5 inch wheels.

BTW, is there any way to infer the wheel width from the tire size currently on the wheel (e.g., 245). I am guessing they are 8.0", but I will have to check.
previous owner was drifting and you probably need an alignment. I drift my z and I need alignment. The outcome is inner tire wear.

veloceZ has not been on this forum since this thread was written some 13 years ago. I'm sure he'd appreciate the answer though.

245/40-18 is a common size and works ok. Its a perfect front, and makes a good rear tire for a square setup
