I just purchased wheels
Front 18x9.5 +22
Rear 18x10.5 + 22

What tire sizes would u guys recommend? Want an aggressive/meaty fitment that will not give rubbing issues or such.
265/35 front and 285/35 rear

Or

275/35 front and 295/35 rear

Just depends on tire availability for the brand you buy.

18s are easier to fit than 19s, regardless 19x11 +0 on 295/30 shouldn't require much work.

Tires actual size may vary. Just grab some slip on spacers. Otherwise I think the gap looks fine at your ride height.

Figured I would post my new wheel and tire setup. I also just installed some new BC racing coilovers with new wheels/tires.

Wheels: Varrstoen es2 19x9.5 +12 265/35 tire 19x10.5 +12 285/35 tire
I'm running 5mm spacers front and rear as well.
(Never mind the dealer plates I drive the car under my dealership is why it has those plates)

I see an intercooler so maybe to cool the engine bay? I like the duals even on a DE, more symmetrical and keeps the OCD at bay lol.

Thanks! The car does have a single turbo setup, the driver duct leads to the Air filter/engine bay area. The other one really no purpose besides looks and help with cooling the engine bay a bit.

yeah the fender liners are currently removed I took them out to roll the fenders a bit more. When I finished up it was dry out and I wanted to take it for a test drive before it got dark to get a couple pics, So now I'll be reinstalling them this weekend.

That's a pretty tall tire for the rear, and a really tall front tire. Front will be most problems.

Can anyone tell me how a 285/35/18 would be on an 18x11 +8 rear, gf210 springs, overall lowered about 1.4" in the rear, currently sitting at about -1.7° rear camber.. I am having a hard time finding a setup close to this that is on springs and not coils.

Wheels are bronze cosmis xt206R by the way.
