Default don't know what to do about tires..

Alrite, i don't know what im gonna do about tires; i purchased JAZ 410 Mesh 18x8 and 18x9 starggered setup. I mounted 225/40/18 and 235/40/18 Falken ZE512s and HATED the way the rear looked, too much tire..not enough rim; so i don't know what setup to run with now..the guy recommended running 225/40/18 and 255/35/18;
i was thinkin of running 215/40/18 and 225/40/18 on Falken FK451s; so yeh; im basically stuck, and i NEED these wheels on by Wednesday..so any sugestions would be great! =] thanks guys

like we discussed earlier, you can stretch a 225 on a 9 inch wheel, but depending on your location i wouldnt say go for it.

and dont listen to whoever recomened that to you.. a 40 in the front and 35 in the rear? that would look stupid..

i would go with 225 up front and rear, also post up your offsets so its easier for people to help

do not go 215 or 35 on your tires, that will leave little room for error. You can bend a rim if you are not careful.

i know in 19's with a staggard setup some use a 265/35 tire, i wonder if a 265/40 would work???

Look at my pics in my profile, i have 18x8 Adavan's in Toyo Proxies 225/40/18 in a 37 offset.. Looks great. Sometimes its the rim that offset the look of the rim vs. the tire setup.... With my rim/tire setup its perfect..

Good Luck
