I can't find any wheels with the same specs as mine!

Hey guys! I just need some quick help/recommendations on tires.

I have a set of 18x8+30 fronts and 18x9+30 rears coming in. I was thinking about a 225/40/18 in the front and a 245/35/18 in the rears. With that set up, would I need to roll my fenders? Would I have any clearance issues? Hopefully someone can help. Thanks for all the help guys!

BTW I am sitting on TRD Springs which I don't know the official drop.

do you at least have camber bolts up front? the front wheels/tires will poke out from the fender at stock 0 camber and look goofy. camber bolts will help gain around -1 deg of camber to make it better fitting/looking and handling even.

I actually don't have any camber bolts.. I was hoping to stay stock with everything other than the springs, but it's tough with an aggressive offset.

camber bolts are only like $30. you can even install them yourself really easily at home. then just take it to a good alignment shop and done.

Yeah I've seen a couple for like $25-$30. So basically, it'll work with the wheels and tires, but with a bit too much poke and it looks stupid/goofy.

Get camber bolts. Or better yet coil overs. Let the modding begin!
