18"x 9.5" with 275/35ZR18 front.
18" x 10.5" with 295/35ZR18 rear.

My car was lowered 1", sold them to a MadIce with a 2" drop and he had to do less mods than I did.

17x9.5 front and 18x10.5 rear OEM rims. Car is lowered 1.5" all the way around. Nothing done to the front. In the rear, adjustable panhard, BFH mod, 1/8" OEM 3rd gen spacers. No clearance issues, but will hit bumpstops when suspension is fully extended.

Default rims&tires

I have the Eibach Pro kit with 9.5'x18's all around. Tires are 275's and I have no problems. I will be going to 285's when these wear out and I expect there will be no problem then either.

Ya all I had to do was the BFH mod (wasen't hard). It only rubbed the size of a dime.
