Hey guys. I am in a crappy spot. I really like the looks of my rims but the damn things are only 8" wide! I dont really have the cash to widen them right now and am leary if iwiden them, they wont fit right. I have 265s out back right now ZRi's and they fit fine. Nitto make anything close i nthe 555R to fit my rims or do i basically have to get them widened?

They are a little expensive but her are some 285-35-18's. http://www.discounttiredirect.com/di...35&rd=18&ar=35 Just go to their website and search the tires by brand, that way you can see all the sizes. Good luck.

Did you ever get the stock wheels back from the guy you gopt the car from? If so I would say keep your 18's with street tires and the stock 16's on some Nittos
