SoaReS · 05-18-2008, 02:09 PM

Hi everyone, I just ordered a set of 5zigens in 18x8.5 for my 05. I really dont know much about tire sizes so I was just curious if someone could help me out with an appropriate tire size for this 18x8.5 wheel... thanks

245/40 is too tall.

235/40 or 245/35 is the ideal size.

I've put 225/40 on mine

i'm running the same size/offset wheel on my car and i've got 235/40/18 RS2's

On that specific size and offset (which is ideal by the way), you'll want to get 245/40/18. Its the perfect combination.

A 245/40/18 is .4" taller than stock...so is that too tall...not really. If you are going 60 on the freeway your real speed will be 61.8mph
