Default Torq Thrust 18x10 all around........

I'm goin to be placing an order for the Custom 18x10 TT2s, I'm also gettin som 275/40s all around. I was wondering if I should pick a diffrent tire size? I think that size would look good cuz 35s might be less rubber for the wheels. Do you have to specify that you need the 93-up Camaro backspacing? Or should I consider a diffrent backspacing? I want the rims to look the same all the way around. One last thing, is Wheelsforless the cheapest place to order this wheels? Need some help guys, Thanks!

I think a 275/40/18 is going to be too tall, especialy for the front. I ran 275/35/18 on my 18x9.5 C5 wheels, and they were ~ the same dimensional size as a 275/40/17 (~25.7"). I would run 275/35s al around, but even those may rub on the front. Good luck and..... PICS!

Well someones already running 19x10 with a 275/30 so if he's not having rubbing problems I hope I wont either. But sounds like the 275/35 might be the best choice. Do I need any special backspacing?

That's what I run.
18x9 with 265/35 frt
18x10 with 295/35 back

No rubbing but less than an inch clearance when u turn.
It also depends what wheel u have and your offset.
