A friend of mine is getting Rota Grid 18x9.5 and needs to know what tire size to get. i was thinking 245/35/18. I'm not sure though so please let me know what you recommend. Thanks!

kinda off topic but where did your friend order them from?

BUMP! i was leaning towards the exact same setup and wheels.

I don't think so that to big 225/40/18 or 235/35/18

i got 225/40/18.. heres what mine looks like.

for me i wish i had gotten 215/40/18 cause i need a little bit more clearance simce im dropped lower. but with htechs i think 235/35/18 would look nice

i was thinking 245/35/18.
That's appropriate for a 9.5" wide wheel. Minimum tire width would be 235, max 275, for that aspect ratio.

No idea on that fitting a tC, I'm only replying about tire sizes for the wheel.

what suspension are you rolling out on? do you rub a lot too?

thats some nice stretch. what brand tires are they? are they nexens?

deja: im on Tein SSP's.. with about -1.7 fronts and -3.4 backs. Im wanting to get form and function type 2s soon and i would need to first sell my coils to do so (in the classifieds section :@] ) then after imma put my camber at 1.5-6 and 3.0
and as for rubbing, i rolled my rear fenders and had to trim some stuff and took out the fender liner in the back so no rubbing at the moment with that..and fronts im only rubbing on the fender liner (only on medium/big dips) which im taking out soon when i get the new coils.

hks: thanks, yeah they are nexens..they are decent and get the job done i guess lol

SO MANY GRIDS! OMG thank god i sold mine. Anyway with h-techs, I would go 225/40/18 which is what i had also. It gives it a nice stretch and enough so you won't have to roll anything.

haha looks like you started a trend :) I'm still debating on what wheel setup I want when I can get my rims but your old one sounds perfect to me so far..but it won't be grids or rotas I can say that much :)

I also won't be as low..even if I do decide to go the coilover route....
