That looks great! I just got my hyper silvers in square set up. I have 255-35-18 in the rears but im not sure if i should go with the same in front.

WOW! Looks AWESOME. Loving the Tom's tail lights as well!

if i go 18x8.5 +45 in both front and rear, would it still be just as flush as this?

I guess what i'm asking is, does the width affect the offset?

It would not be as flush as this. Do a little research on how offset and wheel width works.

Would a 255/35/18 work in the fronts on a 9.5 wide +45 offset? Or is 245 the widest you can go with out rubbing or fender mods.

Here is a set of Raijin's we did on a Hot Lava FRS wrapped in Enkei Raijn wrapped in 225/40/18 Front and 265/35/18 Rear Continental ExtremeContact DW along with BC Racing BR Coilovers

He could of run 235 but the customer opted for 225's. Probably wanted to play it safe.

Bump for an answer to this. I started a thread asking this same question but don't think I got a definitive answer. Is anybody running this exact spec?

I can let you know tomorrow. I am getting 245/35/18 mounted on my fronts now. Coils will be put on first thing tomorrow morning along with the wheels. I will post pics soon after.

7M-King 12-06-2013 05:01 PM

Sorry. Mis read my own quote. Im going with a 245 to be safe. But i can easily put the 255 i will have on the rears, on the front for a test fit to see if there are any issues.

It depends on how wide the tires run. Im on MPSS and they tend to run wide so with what I have now (245) they are the same as some brands 255's. Lowered about an inch, I didnt rub at all. I went a little lower (no fender gap) and now I rub sometimes on full wheel lock, but on all other kids of driving no rub.
