As the title says....I wanna get a definite answer on if these will fit and if so what size of tire I should get mounted on them. I think it will be ???/40/18; Palnning on mounting Nitto 555R's on them.

...(I posted this question on another topic and only one person (SweetNLow) answered me and they could not give me a definite answer)...

My current (well as soon as I recieve and then get installed) suspension setup:
-Custom Coilovers (KYB based / H&R Spring) bought from SweetNLow

Here is the link to the wheels.

Thank You In Advance.

Nice rims and good choice of tires. Not positive if it will fit but defenitly a nice pic in rims will look very smooth.

^ beat me to it. I had "425-885-0438CP" copied before I scrolled down to see the rest of the thread.

Thanks for all the advice and comments so far and keep them coming.....

....I really wanna get these bad boys on my car so if any one can tell me what I would need to do in order to make them fit; That would be greatly appreciated.

Also, thanks for pointing out he bolt pattern...(I saw two of theose bolt patterns and didn't know which one would work because I could not see any difference.

Thanks Once Again!

225/40R18 would be the size for a 40 series tire, BUT not quite ideal for the 8.5" wide wheel. It would probably look narrow.

You'd be much better off appearance wise with like a 245/35R18 or even a 255/35R18 all depending on whether or not the offset is ideal (you wouldn't want to rub).

It also depends on what struts, etc... you have to whether or not you can fit the 255 on there. If i remember right that's the size that's on the OSV. Oldsman would probably know all about that one.

do the struts you're using for the coilovers have the lower spring seat removed?

^ uh, i dunno...

I haven't received them yet to make that determination, although I could PM the person I bought them from and find out.

I don't see what this will do though?!?

As i think i remember OldsMan saying, if you go with the really wide tire (the 255) at least in the case of the OSV wheel, the tire will hit the lower spring seat on the strut if you have certain aftermarket struts, however the stock ones are fine. And surely with the coil-overs should be ok if the spring seat has been modified or removed.

and these are the same set of coilovers i sold u but they look identical...... u can see there is not perch so i think ull be fine with 8.5 inch rims..... dont hold me to that statement though if u put them on and u rub.

and if by chance u do rub u could always get spacers..... but then it just looks goofy cause the tires stick outside the fenders...... just look at oldsman's car
