I'm trying to choose the right red, found a few i think will work but haven't found the perfect one yet. I would do the candy teal but its getting played out on white cars already.

We did 255.35.18 all around when we were lowered on Eibach Sportlines, but with the ride height that we have set on our coilovers, we can't run that size in the front without rubbing one out because of the sexiness.

Quick question wheeldude or anybody here, I'm planning on getting a BRZ soon and if I get the same 18x9.5 Rota Grid - Deep Red (5x100/e38/73) rims he has, could I run 255.35.18 tires all around? Keep in mind I'm going to be on stock suspension?

Or if I decide to get coilovers and lower it to 35mm would I be good with 255.35.18 all around? I'm new to this so please forgive me

Edit:

Also wheeldude if you dont mind me asking or if anybody knows, how much did he lower his ride with the coilovers? 35mm??

Will it fit with stock suspension? No

Will it fit with coils, lowering, and camber? yes

Appreciate your help and quick reply mang! I really do! So if I do get coils and lower down to 35mm, could I get away with 255.35.18 tires all around? Or would I have to do 225.40.18 front then, 255.35.18 rear???

You can do 255 all around, many people are doing it now. You WILL need coils. Plus whatever else to do camber adjustments all the way around.

The bigger question is why do you want such a wide tire?

I think I just like the tire just for show and looks! Would that be a wrong reason to want it? I seen ill show you the pic that I saw from these forums:

Thanks wheeldude:



What camber adjustments would I need to do

Get the wheels, pick out the suspension that you need and get a proper alignment once it is all installed. I won't know what camber you will need as everything introduces variables.

Check out the "Meaty Tire Thread" read it front to back.EVERYONE in there is rocking wider than 235 up front, so you will learn a lot from them.

Good looking out on the quick replies! You dont know how much I appreciate your help repped!

Also I'm going to get these ST Suspension Coils with the tire and 18x9.5 Rota Grid - Deep Red (5x100/e38/73) wheels installed at a professional place, would they also inform me what settings are good without it rubbing? Since you said I could get away with 255 all around? Like would they help me set up so I get no rub? (I know it sounds like a stupid question)

Ill probably lower to 35mm with 255 all around
