don't u think i would rub?

225/35, i have 215.35, they look hot, but it's a nightmare to drive on them

I have 215/35 as well, they are really small and the ride isn't as good, but damn with a 40 mm offset you might need them in order not to rub.

215-35 never a problem even with a 40+ offset rim

KeePiNitCLean · 12-04-2002, 12:58 AM

i like my 225/35/18s better than my old 215/40/18.I am also on eibach prokits and i have no rubbing problems

trulegend · 12-04-2002, 06:25 AM

so should i get

215/40/18 or 215/35/18

will it make any difference on the lifespan of the tire if driven at the same period?

trulegend · 12-04-2002, 08:03 PM

cmon someone answer my question pleaseeee

pearl type sh · 12-05-2002, 03:17 PM

either way your car will have some sort of camber and you'll have to replace the tire from inner wear before you get down to bald tires on both 35/40 series.
35: you will have to watch pot holes more BUT it looks better
40: are like monster tires. you're coo.

pearl type sh · 12-05-2002, 03:18 PM

SH!t i would run 30's if i didnt drive so much.

225.30.18

WTF U FOOLS TALKING ABOUT???????????

I have 215/40/18 Pradas and i rub in the rear w/ the tab cut, but i only rub when i take corners hard. My rims are 42 offset w/ about a 2" drop. Pradas for some reason, in my opinion, look like a lower profile then they really are. Hopefully the pic will help you in some way. The next set i get are 225/35/18...

225/40/18. go for the aggressive look. thick tires.
