Really quick question.

I have to replace all four tires on my car and would like some advice. I have some rims that I purchased for my Evo before I had to get rid of it that are 18x8.5 with a +33 offset and am looking to mate them to some 225/40 tires. Would this be an ideal combination and would any fender mods need to be made? Thanks.

With that offset, yes a roll in the rear will be needed if lowered and probably even at stock height if you have people in the back seat.

Go with 235 or 245 tires too. No point in wide wheels matched with narrow tires, sorta defeats the purpose IMO.

Thanks. I was skeptical on the width too so I'll take your recommendations.
