Default those with 10" wide wheels and drop....

What offsets are you running in the rear, tires, and does it rub? post some pictures if you can.

Im looking in gettin 18" wheels that are 9" in front and 10" in the rear. The offsets are about 54ish in front and 60ish in the rear. And I am dropped on Megan coilovers. Im worried about rubbing and dont know what tires to go with.

To run a 10" wheel depending on offset, You can run a 275 if the the offset is 70+. MInor fender work may be needed, but some slight camber its all it takes.

With those offsets you posted above, you can run a 265 in the rear and a 235 up front. 245 is also very do-able but you have to throw in the account of how much your lowered. Ride heighth plays a big role

I like to have my car lowered to like a finger gap. now whats the smallest wide tire can I fit on a 10" wheel. Because I saw another post about this and the wheel stuck out and the tire looked really small on the rim.

i run 255 now on my 10.5(VIP style), but I wouldn't recommend it for track... with the offsets you posted you can get away with 275's with camber and rolled fenders. I suggest that you also relocate the rear bumper tabs.

im on a 9.5 +44 and have room with a 245, so im probably going to move up to the 255, or maybe 265 if i add more camber.
