what size tires should i be buying ?

RPF1
18x9.5 +15 front
18.10.5 +15 rear

i plan on buying Hankook VENTUS V12 EVO2's (unless i shouldnt?) the price is real nice.

My 2008 base is 100% stock suspension, i would prefer not to have to roll my fenders, but if i need to i will.

100% street car. Daily driver actually.

Opinions on tire sizes?

Thanks guys.

Stock height -2.1 rear camber and running a 275/40-18 Nitto Invo. Started at +30 just fine and installed a 5mmspacer I had from my prior wheels. Started to rub slightly.

I did a slight roll and ran a 10mm spacer (effectively +20) for a while. Then lowered the car and rolled the lips almost flat and run at +10 now

Hold up, so can a 10.5 be run with out rubbing?


I was just about to order my 10.5 +15's with 285's as soon as I get my tax refund.

My only real fear was rubbing on my brembos with that off set.

I'm lowered but plan on adjusting accordingly assuming it's not truck height to fit them. I also expect to roll my fenders some

What's your offset and does it clear brembos?

Look at his pic, it's a normal 10.5 +15 RPF1 combo. He is rolled in the rear or rubs like hell. They also clear brembo just fine, front and rear.
