i was wondering if 18x9.5 would fit in the front of our cars. (i have an ap1 03). the tire is a 245/40/18 aswell.... will the tires even fit the rim? i initially bought the tires form a guy to fit a 18x9 rim... and i got screwed over and stuck with the tries

and also how well would the fit in the back?

woudl i need fender rolling etc ? what all wou;d i need to do?

 

I've never even heard of a 18.5 x 9 wheel

 

shit im an idiot imeant 18x9.5

 

What is the offset?

 

Also, you would want a 245/35 not 245/40 with an 18" diameter wheel.

 

18x9.5, +44 all around

i already have tires that are 245/40/18 all around... so i was just seeing if it was ok to buy the wheels to fit the tires and the fronts on the car..

would 245/40/18 not fit these tires/and or car? are these tires not going to work period on the car? do i need to sell them?

 

It is going to most likely need trimming of the fender liner and a flare. I had a 235/45/17 tire on a 17x9 +45 for a while and there was no way it wasn't going to rub if I was lowered. I got away with it because I wasn't lowered.

The diameter of the tires is not right..the sidewall will be too tall. It will be about half an inch larger..meaning the tire standing will be an inch taller. This is going to make rubbing even more likely.

 

i have a prokit that i was going to use to drop it an inch... i guess rubbing would be likely? so is the 245/40/18 not doable at all on an s2k with 18x9.5 all around? and when you say it needs triming etc, are you talking about the fronts only?

 

so by diameter you mean the problem is the 18x"9.5" in the fronts right? if it was a 8.5 wheel in the front would i have reduced/solved the problem?

 

A 9.5" +44 wheel is a fairly aggressive front fitment. You will absolutely have to roll and possibly flare the fender based on camber and tire size. 245/40 is going to cause an issue because it is both wide AND tall compared to stock. IMO, the ideal tire size for 9.5" +44 all around would be 225/40 front and 255/35 rear. If you want non-staggered, then 245/35 would be way to go. I would cut your losses on those 245/40 and sell them.
