cb is the center bore size. FR-s hub bore is 56.1 mm, you might want to get hub rings for 66.6 mm, that's up to you.

225/50/R18's are what I'm running on my 18x8.5's lowered 1 inch in the front. lots of room, no rubbing!

Are you sitting flush? Sportlines is 1.5 in I want to get as flush as possible without rub

Either a 215/45 or a 225/45 would be fine.

Sure, you could fit a 245 over an 8.5. Personally, a 235 would be the biggest I would go on an 8.5 for clearance purposes, but I tend to prefer a slight stretch on my tires anyway. It's up to you though, you can always google different tire sizes on your size wheels to get a better idea. There's plenty of pictures out there.

Thanks man, and I'm jus trying to get it to where it sits as flush as possible with my 1.5 drop. I like the stretched look to.

that is stretched for no reason on an 8.5.

i would go with a 245/40. that's the more appropriate size for an 8.5 wide wheel. your offset is low enough that you shouldn't have issues.
