Hey guys whats goin on... I was thinking bout getting new rims and tires for my 08 altima coupe 2.5. I was thinking bout putting 18' Continental All Season DWS tires on with 18x8 Sport Edition SE-14 rims... I was wondering if anyone knows if that would fit my car without any problems like suspension or spacing problems or stuff like that... Right now im running on the stock tires 215/60-16 with stock hubcaps =/

offsets and tire sizes are useful. 18x8... ok that's fantastic but there's a huge difference between +30 and +45 (which i've found are the only 2 offsets offered) also, what size tires are you thinking about putting on? 225? 235? how much sidewall did you want? all of this is somewhat important info, please consider including it in future posts.

but considering the wheels are 18x8, i think you would have enough clearance unless you're slammed or something. +30 is putting you pretty close to flush if you're dropped though, so consider that when choosing your tires.
