245/35r18 on 9.5
 
Hello i'm new here, i plan on buying rota torque wheels, 18x9.5 +35, i saw that most of you run 225/40 on a 9.5 inch wheels.. but i don't want stretched tire, i plan on lowering my car about 2'', anyone know if 245/35 would fit in front? without rubbing*


Thx

dial in some negative camber and you'll be fine with that setup

Would adding negative camber from the coilovers top plate in front be enough? Or maybe need camber bolt too? And 245/35 would clear on the back?

yes and yes

if i want clearance in front for when i turn the wheels.. would it be better 235/40 or 245/35? because 245 is wider and 235/40 is ''taller'' which is best for clearance?

gui dube987 10-12-2015 05:12 PM

or would 225/40 really be the best for front?

And were you lowered about 2"? If yes were you rubbing?

Yes lowered but no rubbing at all.

Am moving to a 255/35 MPSS for my wider wheels. Mainly to gain a little comfort.
