delurker said:I have a set of those exact rims on my car with 255/45/18's right now. Widest you can go is 275 or maybe 285, depending on the tire. 295 is too wide, that's why I'm switching to 19x10 rears, 19x9 fronts to run the same setup as turbochad and srichard.

I don't see why you couldn't run at least a 285 on the 18x9? Lightnings come stock with 295s on thatm size rim.
delurker said:What profile and which tire? I can't find a 295 in any aspect ratio that doesn't require at least a 9.5" rim, most of them 10".
Here's a "pre-lowered" shot of my car.
delurker said:It's the 26mm offset - makes them stick out a bit more and look wider than a higher offset would.

**Note - the front tire looks off because this pic was taken pre-alignment after being lowerd, but I wanted a pic of the new wheels
CobraIILover said:Ok thanks. What do you think about machining off about 1/4" off the back of the hub pad? Think that would give a better fit?
CobraIILover said:gp001, can you give me some info on your setup? Brand, rims sizes, tire sizes, price (if you don't mind)? Your setup looks killer. I wasn't looking to spend the $$ for 19s right now, but after seeing your car I may have to .
