I have the same set up on my s13 I run 235 with my 8.5" fronts and 255 for the 9.5" in the rear. This is only if you want the tires flush with the wheels go smaller if you want that stretched look. No spacers needed as long as you are not running coilovers

depends on how bad the roads are in your area if you hit a big ass pothole will you be able to find another rim to replace the bent one overall you should be fine with those tire sizes althought with that much traction and some heavy ass rims you will have ass acceleration but hey its your first car have fun

Swiftstyles: how do you know he doesnt need spacers offsets were never mentioned and besides you did not even remotely answer the question don't respond on speculation and read the post completely before posting.

hey guys, i got 18x8 and 18x9 work wheels on their way. i was planning on using 215/40/18 and 235/40/18. this will be my daily driven car but i still want a little of the stretched look. I was wondering what people use with that rim size?and also if you guys had pictures of the tire size that i was thinking fo using on th esame size rim.
