Tire Size Suggestion
 
I am considering buying a set of Enkei NT-3+M 18x9.5 +40 wheel for my frs. I already placed my order and just had a tire fitment question.

What is the best tire size that fits with that setup and width that wont rub crazy and I won't have to roll fenders. Some info about my car is I have KW V3 coilovers and it is lowered about an inch front and rear. If anyone has some info on these wheels and setup that could help with what tire size would be best please help. Thanks in advance!

Well +40 is a pretty high offset so it will be tucked in, I would say go for a staggered setup as 245/35/18 in the rear and 235/35/18 in the front. Watch the sidewall maybe do a 40. What are your spring rates?

i have a set of advans 18x9.5 +40 I run 255/35/18 on them. I only rub on track during elevation changing turns and even then it's not terrible.. It's a fine setup for daily driving.

have you rolled your fenders or as is with a drop you fit that size?

not really looking for a staggered setup. I want to do a square setup.

Usually you will run some camber in general. I'm not sure if it will rub 0 all around.
