Wheel fitment sizes.

[240RB1]

i just ordered a new set of wheels for my black car thats awaiting boost sizes are 18x10 +22offset for the rear and 18x9 +24offset for tires i will be using pirelli p zero nero 235-40-18 in the front and 245-40-18 in the rear. do these sized tires think i will get a nice strech? will they rub? is pulling of the rear fender necessary? i jumped on this quick because i am getting a great price on them so yeah thanks.

here is your answer

Square tire sizing on a 9 inch wheel is 255 and for a 10 inch wheel it's 275/285. So yes, your setup will be stretched.

Will it rub on S13 fenders? I dunno, but probably.

Don't buy pirelli. They will wear out faster then other tires in their class, only have OK grip and be really expensive.

The only thing they do better then other tires is possibly have better winter traction due to all the biting edges they have molded in. And even then its a wash since its a low profile tire any way.

You'll probably have to do a slight pull on the rear, but it really depends on how much rear camber you have. Less camber = more pull and vice versa.

well i have the pirellis laying around so for now they will do and as for the pull srtech deal hopefully i will just need to roll the fenders becaus ive never pulled fenders before.

[240RB1]

so i got the wheels and in teh front they are perfectly flush with the fender so i will only run a weenie bit of camber to clear fenders as for the rear they stick out. i thought they would and i guess i was right. the pic is of teh rear would i have to buy over fenders or could i pull the fender that much to cover the wheel/tire combo without a crazy amount or camber?

i think i will start looking for over fenders i guess because the wheels stick out an inch or more so yeah.

i am open to any comments so post post post.



again sizes are 18x9 24 offset (fronts) and 18x10 22ofset (rears)

stretch a tire on itlower your damn car so the wheel isnt just hanging there, and THEN see what it looks like. RIght now its just chillin in the air with no load on it...put a load on it

[240RB1]

ok will do but not till tues. you think a 245 40 will strecth nicely one a 10in wheel? ive looked on rimtuck.com but angles are wierd

[yokota180sx]

235/40

[240RB1]

ok so i ended up mounting a 235-40 on the 10inch wheel and tried two methods to air the bish up first the normal way to ait it up like a normal tire didnt think it would work (and it didnt) so the next way i tried was the old skool ether and lighter method i tried it about 5 times and the flame would just seems to spread not burst like it should i am at a loss, how the hell do people air up "stretched" tires?

nice dog...but seriously i really cant shell out 2-300 bucks for a cheetah bead deal im broke lol i guess il keep on with the ether till the wheel/tire melts lol

[tokyo_x-treme_racer]

Please post pics when you get them mounted and installed on your car, I want to see how it looks, thanks and gl.

[240RB1]

Well heres some pics. i have decided that 235 is to much of a strecth for me i will be trying a 245-40 or buy 255-35 we will se i will wend up needing a roll and slight pull to not look like my fellow mexicans lol
