Question for the Tire/Suspension Guru's....
So right now my car is sitting on ohlins coilovers (works) and my rear fenders are rolled.
I am running 245/35/18's on an 18x8.5 (30mm) inch rim with no problems whatsoever.....
Originally i was going to just get new tires in a 265/35/18 and keep the same rims...
But now, I am looking to get a new set of rims and go the same width on the tire......
My questions is basically what would be the ideal size wheel to get with this size tire to avoid any rubbing issues. I know i want a 265 and i am sure it will fit.......but i'm not sure about rim sizes......
Off the top of my head i think an 18x9 would be better than an 8.5 inch rim for a 265 tire........but what offset am i looking at to avoid any rubbing....
Thanks very much for any info.
