Default WORK WHEEL TIRE SIZE HELP

I have some Work S1 3 piece F 18x8 et*56 R18x10 et*56
Looking for people who have fit 275-285 on lowered S2k's I know i will have to roll the fenders, I know i may experience rubbing. I just need to know tire profile fitments I was thinking of the 275-35-18 but the Overall height is 1" taller than stock. so i was looking at the 285-30-18 But 30 series seems low and fronts would be 235-35-18?? Thanks for the help

I know of someone running 275/40/17 on the rear with no rubbing and no fender rolling. I also hope to do the same or at minimum go with rolling the fenders. I know it isn't your 18's but it is a start.

dude

225/40
285/30

30 seems small but itl be the exact same sidewall as the 40

width times profile %=height of sidewall

225/40 and 285/30 have the SAME size sidewall

dont need 235

also 235/35 is thinner MUCH THINNERA THAN 225/40

225 FITS UP TO A 9

255 FITS UP TO A 10

285 FITS UP TO AN 11

ur fine w/ either rear.. front needs to be 225/40 to have proper fitment
