Adding two new ground level photos for those that want to see the width of the tires under the car ... I apologize for them not being quite level ... my Galaxy S4 doesn't come with a steady hand!

Front view - Ground Level (Hit a newly shredded semi-tire on the highway 8 days after getting the car, so the front air dam is cracked)

I'm adding these to the original post as well.

Will be adding the new pics of the wheel closeups with my current Ray's Lugs soon.

Here is another look of a new set of Volk TE37SL Black Edition 18x9 +45 wheels wrapped by Dunlop Direzza ZIIs 255/35 tires.

Also of note, the car is sitting on RCE Tarmac 2 Clubsports Coilovers with just over an inch of lowering ... The front still needs to drop another .5" for the look I want, and once I get around to that this weekend I will update the pics.

For reference I posted a stock side view ...

No need to show profile views of stock - those Prius tires don't poke!

Chose not to use hub-rings?

Hey All,

I'm from Australia and got the same rims TE37SL been measuring non stop trying to figure which tires will fit and which will not. I also have fully adjustable coils.

My wheel specs are as followed:

Fronts: 18 x 9 +45
Rears: 18 x 9.5 +45

Can you please confirm the profile on the 235 which you believe will fit on the fronts?

235/35/18
or
235/40/18

I'm also thinking 255/40/18 on the rears, thoughts?
