Message	Waste of time/money to go with wide wheels and wider fenders and mount Honda Civic size tires. Absolutey pointless. 265/35/18 or 255 on a 18X9 is perfect 295/35/18 or 285 on a 18X10 is perfect. When I see narrow tires stretched onto wide wheels I assume the driver could't afford the tires to fit the new wheels. But whatever makes you happy.
