Tires on Drift R's

[Vicious Goat]

Sorry not too sure on rims and tires! Does anyone know what size tires to run on 18x8(F) & 18x10(R) Drift R's? And if there would be any rub? Thanks!

[GTOGRRRR]

235/40 front

275/35 rear

depends on the offset tho...

[Rod Run]

depends more on what tire you are placing on your rims. you can't just say what size will fit, when you don't even know which tire you are running

brand first......size second

You could have the lips trimmed down and sealed at a body shop.

Rolling the fenders takes an hour, tops, done right.

It's easy.

Without rolling or bags, the only thing you can do is cut them. But you can't run that tire without doing one of these things. Drag springs may work alone, but not sure. I rolled and it got rid of most of the rubbing, but the drag springs took care of the rest. Rolling is worth it to get the extra meat.

Are you running 285s?

I was told by GroupAWheels to run 275 or 265/35 out back with 18X10 Drift-R's. I have Toyo Proxes4 245/40 all around on 18X8 Drift-R's.

Their recommendations tend to ere on the side of caution...

These cars make it very difficult to say what is an exact, because of the inconsisteny in the rearends.
We stay on the side of cation when we recommend sizes on the website.
Depending on your car, you may be able to run the 275 and not touch a thing. If you choose to run a 10 you need to be prepared to adjust your lips though regardless of the tire size. Obviously the bigger you go the more you increase your chances or need to to the possible adjusting.
The easiest is a 265. A 275 will work fine with possible adjusting. A285 will definatley need the fender lips adjusted.
This is all based on a stock car with no other mods done to it.
If you have any other questions just let us know.
