Hi Guys.
Just a question for all to list the size of rubber people are running. Dont bother if you run 16's but for all of us who run 17, 18, 19's I would be curious what additional mods like coilovers which have helped to accomodate the bigger rims n tyres.
I tried putting 235-50-18 onto my 18"rims and they wouldnt fit. I went with a 245-40-18 and had to use spacers on th rears and now while going over hard bumps I get a bit of rubbing on the rear tyres.
Pop some info especially if you run 18 or 19 rims.
Cheers guys.

235/50/18 is way too big and much bigger than the stock rolling diameter, they'd never fit!245/40/18 is about the biggest I've ever heard of on a legnum for rolling diameter, what offset are the wheels and how big are the spacers? If your car is lowered you will get lots of rubbing on the rear with those tyres

I'm running 17x8 Evo 8 Enkeis and the tyre size I have is 235/45/17. No rubbing issues at all. I love them, I think they suit the car very very well in terms of grip and asthetics.
