Low profile tires for 18"x 8 +35
I'm thinking about getting the TSW Nurburgring 18". What are some good low profile tires?

Why do you want a "low profile tire"?
For that wheel you will want 235/40 not really low profile... Summer tire? Last edited by #87; 12-23-2012 at 08:54 AM. |

yes summer tires. I had 18" rims on my gti, and I like the look of less tire wall.

235/40 is the correct size for 8" wheels, as this poster said. Are you looking for 25 or 30 series sidewalls? Ride quality is going to suffer, but hey it's your car. |
