Hey guys,
Debating on a set of tires from a guy that seems like a great deal, but I'm wondering if they are just too tall... I've been running 225/40 ZR18 W92 tires on my ride, with standard suspension, and it seems to clear perfectly while turning... Anyone run 225/40 r 18 on their ride with stock suspension. |

To be honest, you should be rubbing right now on the bottom hat of your struts if you have the stock suspension. I ran 225/55/16 and the bottom hats of my struts were sitting right on the tires. You'll definitely have the issue I had if you run 225/50/18.

I have no issue with the struts and I'm 17mm taller than what you where. |

My offset was crap since I had GT4 wheels, I think it was +45 so I had to run spacers all around so it would not rub
