Can this be done?

What size wheels do I need?

I do not want to roll fenders or rub. I am fine with factory tires and want to use them on my new wheels.

In the FAQ it says -
Recommendation for 18" wheels: Without a doubt the best set is 18x8 up front with 245/45/18 matched with 18x9 out back w/ 275/35/18. This set looks great, fits porportionally and lets you pick up some width out back. The ride quality is also great. Or use 18x8 and 245/40/18 at all four corners.


Im sure I could use the stock tires until they need replacement, right?

If I went 18x8, 48mm offset - I could use the stocks then go to 245/40 18s later with no rubs or rolling?

Anyone clear on this?

Unless you go with staggard, leave your 18's on. They look great and you do not have to worry about fitment.

IF you post in the parts, you may get someone to trade.
