Default New i-forged ordered what size wheels?

I need your help Guys, I just ordered the 2piece I-Forged evo's
18x9 frt
18x10 rear
what tire sizes do you guys suggest
I was thinking:
275/35/18 frt
295/35/18 rear (is this too big for a 10 inch rim?)
Can anyone tell me if thats the ideal selection
or do I need a different size

Thanks In advance

those seem like good sizes to me. 295s fit perfect on a 10" wheel.

I'm running the same setup that Tony stated.

iForged 3 piece Senekas
18x9 fronts
18x10 rears

275/35/18 fronts
295/35/18 rears

I've got around a 3.xx" lip in the rear, and about 2.5" lip up front. iForged wheels are where it's at man, I promise you won't be disapointed.

Im running 18/10 and 18/10.5 Iforged with 275/35 and 295/35.

Perfect fit and no clearance issues with the rear lip rolled, my car is also lowered with the Pro kit..

Not sure if LS1tech gets any kind of discount, but you're looking at around $1000 per wheel. The finish you choose will affect the price in most cases.


No Juice, I have a few shitty pics. The car is buried under about 2 feet of snow right now, but come spring I'll have plenty. The car is also stock height as it sits, but there's $4k worth of LGM suspension somewhere in the mail.
Should make the car look even more killer.

Here's a few shitty ones..

You going to have to wait about 8 weeks for your wheels, so you have plenty of time to decide on tires. The 295 for the rears and 275 for the fronts will fit just fine.

Also I didnt pay near $1000.00 each for the 3 peice wheels, and i paid extra for chrome(no polishing for me). I cant say who because they are not sponser. Pm me for details.
