That's a pretty mild setup you shouldn't have any problems

Hi, I'm looking at 18x8.5 +35 in the front and 18x9.5 +25 in the rear. I am lowered on Eibach springs, and have no camber adjustments. Gonna run 225/35 all round. Will the 9.5 fit? or should I just get 8.5 and get spacers?

I would strongly recommend to run at least a 245 on a 9.5". 225 tire on a 9.5" is very streched and in some countrys not even legal to drive due to safety concerns.


18x8.5 +35 all around is a very good Setup and pretty much flush. If you run a 245/35/18 tire Setup on it you will not Need any spacers.


I run myself a 18x8.75 +35 with 245 tires, feel free to check my car Journal (link below in my signature) to see how it Looks.




If you insist on 8.5 / 9.5 staggered, rather go for 8.5 +35 and 9.5+35, the wheel is alreay 1" wider, so will be 0.5" more "outside" than the front. But please Mount at least a 225 in the front and a 245 in the rear then

Its very very tight, but it seems to work, maybe get in contact with the guy in the thread to reconfirm he had no camber or anything done

Not sure if it will fit with 245 tires, as it is Ultra tight in the front to the inner struits, but it seems to fit with 215 tires. Maybe ask the guy in the thread obove for some Pictures from the inner struits to be sure

Hey, I'm looking at going with a staggered setup. 18x8 +40 in front, 18x9.5 +40 in the rear. I'm lowered 1" on TRD springs. What tire sizes would be best for these? I was told 235/35 in front and 255/35 in the rear, but I want to make sure that's correct. Thanks.

235/35 is really rare.

Front 225/40 or 235/40
Rear 245/35 or 255/35
Staggered setup isn't a good idea for this car, you can search for peoples opinions. It's mostly because of understeer and can't rotate tires.

Well I'm boosted so I need the wide wheels/tires in the back. I think 18x9.5 would be overkill up front, if it would even fit.

Getting Varrstoen ES1 rims 18x8.5. I don't like the stretched look, and the rims have a bit of dish to them. So what tire size would look normal? 235? Thank you!

Why not a 18x8.5" with 245/35/18 all around? You dont need 9.5" wheels to fit an 245 tire

245/35/18 is what you should look for
