Not speaking about the width, but the ratio. Anyone have any pics of this tire on a 4th gen? Seems like it would have a huge sidewall, but i have seen some pics and it doesn't look half bad. Would fill in the fenders a little better

Im only dropped about 1.5 inches so filling the gap a little better is always nice, they will be a little stretched on the rim Im putting them on, so that may help in the looks department....

Any input is appreciated, I'm leaning towards the 40 series right now, but some pics may push me over the edge.

 

yes, too tall. 245/40/18 is better.


stretching, on the other hand....

 

Hehe i know I know, Im just running these sizes because i may not roll my fenders for a bit, so i want to be safe, Not too bad of a stretch at all trust me, hang out in the s-chassis forums for a bit to see some insane stretching

These are my pretty rims, not my track setup

 

Unless you have an offset >40ET it'll rub...
Mine on TEIN H-techs with 35ET:

 

well, to give you an idea, i'm running 245/45ZR16s right now.

you need to park a lliiittle more forward beached whale?

 

That doesn't look too bad, and your drop is similar to mine, have any other shots? And yes you need to back up

ET is +35 BTW

 

not sure if it will help u at all but im runnin a 245/40/18....but im 5th geh

 

7 year old STILLEN front spoiler with a brand new one sitting in my closet = NO FEAR OF SCRAPING ANYTHING... Oh, BTW that was one of the reasons for using 45 series so I could clear more stuff! Ha!

with my 35ET i had to cut rear fenders and the front rubs a lot... I wouldn't use it if you have 35ET.

 

rear

front

 

Wow you do rub? Well **** that then lol...

 

I have modified Koni's in front and the Motivational rear strut mounts (i.e. extended travel)...

 

yes sir, those tires will look hummerish. your speedometer will be way off too, close to 5mph i believe. bad for the brakes too

 

I'm an OLD fart; KNOW my speedo is off; have BIG BRAKES and enough POWER to spin them...

 

Ahhh IC, well the difference is minimal so Im just going to go with the 40 series, either way Im going to have wheel gap so Im just going to save a couple bucks, thanks for the help guys
