Default Will it rub and will vdc be affected

I ordered a set of 18x9 +20 fronts that I'm planning on running a 245/35 tire on and rear 18x10.5 +22 rears that I would like to run a 285/35 on. I do not want to roll or rub and I'm at stock ride height on an 04 touring. Feedback would be great thanks

You should be fine. I doubt you will rub at stock height. In fact you can probably drop less than 1 inch and be OK.

Widths aren't the issue here. Height is. Way too low.

225 45% 18 25.97 Stock reference size F
245 45% 18 26.68 Stock reference size R

245 40% 18 25.72
245 35% 18 24.75
255 35% 18 25.03
255 40% 18 26.03
255 45% 18 27.04
265 35% 18 25.30
265 40% 18 26.35
275 35% 18 25.58
275 40% 18 26.66
285 30% 18 24.73
285 35% 18 25.85
285 40% 18 26.98
295 30% 18 24.97
295 35% 18 26.13
295 40% 18 27.29
305 35% 18 26.41
305 40% 18 27.61

Picked up a set of 10.5 +25 rears once with tires on 'em. Guy had put 295/35s on them that fit fine - lowered - but still too short.

Yes thats what he is saying... 255/40/18 front 275/40/18 rear keeps everything happy... You could do 245/40 front also as an option...

35 series tires would look horrible and handle like the poopoo.. It would look like a z 4x4 baja
