I have the following parts getting ready for install:

- Rota Grid 18x10 +25
- BC Racing coilovers

I have done research on the most popular tires used for 18x10 applications. Basically the offset will dictate how wide the tires can be. My rear fenders will also be rolled flat allowing for more clearance. I just dont want to run too much negative camber that will end up eating my tires prematurely. At the same time, I dont want too much stretch..

Here are the tire options:

265/35/18 or 275/35/18

Please voice your opinions and post pics if you have them. Thanks in advance..

I didnt know they made the Gids in 10" I had 18x9.5" You might want to double check the rim width. I was using 275/35/18.

Thats what I was thinking. It would grip like crazy.

They just came out with the 18x10 +25 Grid. It was a special order and took over 3 months to get.

Hey buddy, I still didn't put those side skirts on yet. Lol....

Anyway, I am also running 18x10's, but on 265/35's. If you are going 275's, I would go with a 30, not a 35. The diameter of the 30's is closer to the stock diameter than the 35's. Unless you truly want a bigger and taller tire, than that's up to you.

Did you weight them? I'm curious to see if they are way heavier than stock.

If it matters, 275 35 will keep your speedo unchanged.

Not true the 35's is closer to the diameter of the stock Advan tires.

What's up bro. Why haven't you installed the side skirts yet? Anywho, I'm not worried about keeping it near stock diameter. I just want it to look right. Not too fat where it makes the wheel look small and not too skinny where the lip of the wheel is exposed. The thing that sucks is that different brands run different widths. (i.e. Dunlops usually run wider than other tires) So it's hard to gauge what tire to go with.

They are definitely heavier than stock. The added width on wider tires and wheels makes it that much heavier.

Good to know.
