I am thinking about getting a set of Kosei K3 18 inch wheels in the near future. However I'm worried about how those will fit since I also will be putting on a set of Hotchkis springs.

Should I get low profile tires? What kind of low profiles offer good performance?
As of now, if I cannot find a good set of low profiles I will probably be getting Eagle F1's or something like that.

Please help me, I dont want my fenders to eat my tires!

 

Do you have s-techs?

 

hotckis is not that bad of a drop.. you arent going to rub.

if your gettin the kosei's in 18x7.5 i would suggest you get an offset anywehre from +35-48.. and you will be fine.

as far as tires go, i would go with 225/40/18, thats what i had on mine, and i never had a problem

 

What is "low profile" tires?

 

the secton number in the tire size... aka 225/40/18.

its known as the aspect ratio. pretty much its a proportion between the tire width and the height of the sidewall.

generally 45 and below are considered low profile tires.
