Great modest sizing for the stock body EVO

Ran your no.s using a 255/35 tire. Looks OK for a no fender roll running stock camber (however, you are getting close to a needed roll). A 265/35 would likely put you into a needed roll

Please search out the TC105N regarding front spacers, dont know

I wouldnt be too concerned until you drop the car back on its feet. Slight fender liner rub may not be a big deal at full lock. You may be OK to let it rub

Also, wouldnt install the PSRS kit to alleviate tire rub

I ordered PF01-Evo enkei wheels 18X9.5 +22 offset for my evo ix, waiting for it to arrive.
Need some suggestion on what tire size to run that would fit well. I'm looking for standard size tires, don't need to go super wide or anything like that.
I'm currently running 245/50/18 evo x wheels dropped on fortune auto coil overs with no wheel gap. car is a daily.

Your are in for some work w/the rear fenders (roll, pull etc). Maybe you knew that (+22 considered very aggressive)

Not a big fan of the stretched tire but the 245/35 would be a good option

A better fit, but will require a bit more rear fender work is the 255/35

Suggestions are based on stock rear camber settings

Hi guys,

Just picked up a LanEvo 9 and am looking at some Advan RZ wheels.

Will 18x9 +25 and 245/40 fit with little to no fender work?

Appreciate any advice.

Ran your no.s on the calculator

You will likely need a rear fender roll w/this setup. +25 is on the very aggressive side

Rota Grid 17x9

Hey guys,

Currently at work so didn't have time to dig through this thread and see if this has come up already. Got my hands on some 17x9 Rota Grids and trying to get an idea on tire size to get.

Rota Grid 17x9 +25 Offset. I have coilovers on the car.

Any suggestions will be appreciated.

The standard go-to size is 255/40. I run a 17x9 as well +29 & run a 275/40 (would not suggest that on a +25)

Depends on how much rear fender work has been or will be done on yours

I am currently running 18x9.75 with a 245/45/18. the rubbing is very consistent lol. The quarters were not rolled because body work was done to the rear and would have cracked the one rear quarter. Needless to say my quarter panels have been working like a cheese grater on my rear tires for quite some time.

I was going to get somewhat of a stretch on the new wheels to minimize chance of rubbing. Is 235/45/17 going to be too small?

The 235/45 is the stock tire size & is OK (not too small). I layed out your spec on the calc & it looks like you will still be rubbing on a non rolled rear fender

dangerous to go to an even smaller tire say 225/40/17? or something smaller than that not a good idea?
