Will this fit 245/40/18 Stock suspension

Hi all,

I purchased my 86 with rear wheels running 245/40/18 on work emotions xd9s. It currently has aftermarket rear struts which has made the car a bit too stiff for my liking. I'm wanting to go back to stock rear struts to alleviate this issue. Does anyone know if this setup will cause rubbing on stock rear struts?

Cheers and apologies if this has already been discussed, i couldnt find the thread.

Tell us your wheel size.
Diameter, width. And offset.
For example 18x9.5+38

That tire size seems good to go, but how far your wheel sit in or how far it pokes beyond flush depends on the wheel size.

Hi sorry forgot to add the wheel details, from memory they are 18x9+38 or 18x10+38.

Thanks

Well thats a big difference. You might be good with 18x9 +38 but not sure ab 18x10. I have 18x9.5 +43 and I was contacting the strut perches.
