    Wheel size help

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I'm looking to buy a set of rims that are 18x9 et36. I've done some research and am almost positive that they will work in the rear. So first off I'd like to know for sure if they will fit in the rear as well as if they will clear in the front. I was also thinking of running 235/35 any info is appreciated!

    thanks,
    Matt

    i would go with et 20 or 25 in the rear to give yourself space on the rear uprights. For tires, i would go 225/40/18 in the front and 235/35/18 in the rear.

    So after thinking about it I think I'm going to just end up going with the 18x8 et35 so I can go low. What is a good tire to run on those if I want some stretch?
    Thanks Poopie for the quick response!

    18x9 et 36 will fit fine, stick with 225 rubber or smaller

    falkens look good stretch. Yokohamas and kumho mx's look good if you want a meaty looking setup
