yomofoitzjay -> will 235/50/18 fit on a 18 by 8.0 rim (3/5/2008 11:36:24 AM)

yeah so i either have a 18 by 8" rim or an 18 by 8.5" rim

i currently have 225-40-18s on them and it barelly has any sidewall or w.e u call it

my question is will a 235/50/18 fill the wheel well pretty well and will it fit ok without any rubbing or scraping. Also are there any other sizes you guys would recommend??

thanks for any help

I would go with a 245 45 18. Its not too much side wall and still rides good.

235/50/18 is the O.E size the GT's came with on the 8.5" wheel.
255/45/18 is the most recommended replacement for those on the same wheel.  And keeping near exact same overall diameter.

Got any pics of this set-up?


Thanks
