Default Guys a question about tires

I know your all sick of me hahahahaha but i didnt get tires for the DPE's just yet...but now i just talked to my brother and the tires that he had before were 235 / 40 i belive and he blew a tire due to rubbing but he was much lower than me, do you think that i should go with 225 / 40 or 225 / 35? or should i just stick with the 235 / 40 like all of you guys? all i have is the drop springs and it lowered it 1 3/4" all around so recomendations welcomend...because i want to put them of soon

Default scratch that, im doing 45's for width... i thought uw ere talking about sidewall... =0

im only doing 45's cause they come with the rims already....rather large yes, esp without the 4.2 for me (ill test em to see if they interfere and rub) but if i can run these, there should be no reason why cant run 235's...i've seen many run 235's with stock suspension and no problems unless major high load on weight

Default you should roll ur fenders and ...

235/40/18 is the size i would go with if i wanted some more grip on thetires. if ur just daily driving it maybe 225/40. i would be weary of driving on anything less than 40 profile tires on the st.

ps i wanna see these wheels in person on the car!
