Unless thats purely sarcasm, it'd like to see it.

Master240sx, are you talking without fender mods? If thats the case, then i dont know. i run 255/35/18 in the rear with rolled and pulled fenders and 225/40/18 in the front with just a roll. However, clearance depends more on what offset and width your wheel is.

I have a set of 18"x8" G35 wheels on my car, and I'm running 225/40r18 all around.

Here's some arithmatic for you:

2(Width*Profile)+(wheelDiameterInches*25.4) = Overall diameter of wheel and tire

2(205*0.55)+(16*25.4) = 631.9mm : stock 205/55r16
2(225*0.40)+(18*25.4) = 637.2mm : 18"x8" 225/40r18

This should help you figure out clearances.
Notes: Overall tire profile is multiplied by 2. This is because the profile is measured from the outer edge of the rim to the outer edge of the tire, so multiplying by 2 covers the top and the bottom. 1 inch = 25.4 mm (approximately). The profile number is a percent, so it's a decimal.

The profile and width you want all depend on how much clearance you have. Use measuring tape to find out what will fit well. If it's slammed and you've got a nice flush offset, you'll probably need some rolling to clear the fenders if they're too fat.

-edit-
Car is lowered on RSR race springs with KYB AGX struts. No fender roll or pull

What are your wheel offsets

I'm pretty sure you can run x10s in the back with 265s and x9's in the front with 245's. You might have to do just a little pull. Since you're asking how WIDE you can get, i'm assuming you want grip. I'm going widebody right now (origin rears-50mm and b-magic front-30mm) I'm going to roll on 17x10 275/40/17 all around. But in your case...seriously consider rolling and pulling. It will open your wheel/tire options up a quite a bit.

That is your bolt pattern. What is the offset?

I really think you should be using the search feature and doing a bit more research before you're asking questions about the very basics here.

The wheel offsets determine whether the wheel will stick out toward or past the fenders or if they will be sunken in and possibly hitting your suspension. The offset will be a + or - followed by a number. (For example +25mm).

Once you've learned the basics of wheel offsets and tire sizes, measure. You could just follow a cookie cutter setup, but your clearances will differ from other people depending on your suspension setup.

You live in Richmond? What color is your car?

And yea... you should really do your home work before asking such questions.

Just slapping some 18" wheels on your car doesn't mean they will look good.

for the love of.....:rolleyes:

rolling your fenders isnt some huge project. You cant even see that its done when looking at the car. Judging by your post, do you even know what fender rolling and fender pulling are? You do realize they're different right?

hahahaha what a whiner! And a whole month later at that! :rofl:

How ya doin big guy? Holdin up alright? You want a sooooda? :D

My car is "rice"? Ummm ok, if you say so. There's a picture thread if you wanna look for it. But just so you know, i could really care less of what people think of my car, LET ALONE your dumbass.

Anyway, you're only futher making yourself look like a complete tool. Stop whining. "I dont wannna mess with the body" You claim to know what you're talking about, but that statement alone shows that you have your head up your ass. Rolling your fenders is BARELY an extensive body mod. Its so quick an easy to do. You want wide wheels and tires without a fender roll? Fine, go ahead, but dont come on here later and start a thread pissing and moaning about how your fenders are chewing up your tires.

Stop getting all pissy. STFU. Geeez, youre getting all butt hurt over nothing. :rolleyes:

I had a set of 18x10's(+37 offset) with 285/30/18 tires on them this weekend. (only on the rear of course). And they actually fit.

yea obviously the back wont be a problem fitting large stuff but the front requires a lot of modification.
