Did you need extended studs for the 5mm spacers so the lug nuts would sit correctly?. Seems pretty moderate so I would expect not to need the extension but want to know for sure.

What are your exact wheel specs front and rear and can you explain "+12 Square set up"

Thanks, I like the way it sits also.

No extended studs. 18x10 +12 square set means all four wheels have that spec.

Got it, does the "+12" measurement represent a little more prominent lip? I ask because it looks like you have a more extended lip, then what I've seen advertised for those wheels.

Thanks dude.

Ehh I doubt its noticeable if there is a difference, Website states same lip size for both offsets, 3.5" lip.

Front and rear?
F 255/40 or 265/35, R 275/40 or 285/35

It all depends on what YOU want and of course you're offsets. SamPappas and I would probably never agree on tire sizes

I live in Maryville, so I am super close. I went to hardees and saw your car in the parking lot. I did not know what brand your wheels were till I saw you post in this thread. Small world.

Lol he changed his post. It was "what size are your tires" and he changed it to a recommendation. I'm going for stance not for meaty. I'm gonna be getting 245's for the rear soon.

I'm surprised you haven't seen it at Kmart. I work in the pharmacy there 6 days a week and park my car clearly visible from beltline

aha my bad I saw the tire sizes a few pages back. The wheel specs are 18x10 all around with +25mm offset.

So it wouldnt be good to run the same tires all around?

for my other car I was gunna run 225/40/18 all around on the 18x10.
