In Reply To	255/35/18 tire with 18 x 8.5 +40 front wheel, will it rub? posted by CRVTKLR[Phoenix] on December 04, 2008 at 06:19 PM
Message	Stock rear TT wheels have a +35 offset and match well with the front of the car. So a +40 offset wheel that's 8.5" is going to sink in a bit more (possible caliper clearance issues too). Also going from a 245/45 to a 255/35 you loose about an inch of sidewall. 245*0.45=110.25mm 255*0.35=89.25mm It may work but it's far from an ideal choice. "The 300ZX Turbo is a dance; it's a song; it's rolling, roaring automotive art. There is no color that doesn't suit it. There is no mood-lifting chemical substance it can't replace." - Automobile Magazine
