CSL's not staggered

deeb · 02-26-2009, 06:13 PM

Can I run an 8.5" front and 8.5" rear with 225/40/18 and 255/35/18 with no rubbing and no fender roll and no lowering?

What is the offset?

Yes, actually - this is recommended. You can even stuff a 245 tire all around.

could I do 245/35/18 and 255/35/18 on the same wheels? no lowering no rolling etc?

Or would the bigger up front rub?

The rear would likely rub, depending on tires. Just stick with 245s.

245 will rub in front..you might not notice it so much on stock suspension unless you compress really hard..

I have a similar question, so what if you ran a 235/35/18 in the front? Would it still rub at times?

Plenty of people, including myself, are running a 255/35 in the rear an I can say my Pirellis never rub.

From what I understand, when it gets this close without any mods it depends on the tire. Its very close though.
