I am about to buy some new tires. I want to know what some of you guys are running in terms of tires. I have 225-40-18 and I want to put a wider tire on there. Anyone have any input??? Thanks!
I think 225 is the widest tire you can put on any rim on our cars unless you get a different offset. But then it will poke out.
i got 235 40 18s on mine it ends up under the spring and strut set up but it works. i dont have any steering issues no rubbing or anything im still at stock ride height tho.
potenza pole position, 7-800 bucks but they don't hydroplane at all, stiff for curves, 70 in a 40 could push them more but dont want to roll it, traction is just awesome, i like em
I am running 235-40-18 on 18x7.5, 40mm offset I believe. I am dropped on roadmagnet springs which is a 2.2" drop. I had to roll the lip in on my fenders some from going over hard bumps, otherwise no rubbing.

how are u guys not rubbing. im running 225/50/16 on stock wheels and stock ride height. i rub when i turn the wheel all the way in either direction. rubs on the inner fender liner
the higher tire is probably whats making it clear the inner fender. i wouldnt go any wider than 225 myself. i got 215/45/17 on mine right now rides bad enough already so im movin to 205/50/17 and well see if ti gets better...
Did I mention I drive a 2000 Lumina now?-----wigm-tuners.org member
