What size tires will fit on 18x8.5
What is the minimum width that would fit on a 18x8.5 inch wheel.
Will 215/40/18 or 225/40/18.

Thanks,
Mike

it also depends on the offset, you can even run 255's if you have the right offset

On my Mille Miglia's I had 245, although they were 18x8 don't know if that makes any difference, and no rubbing here.
