Whats up, I was wondering if any of you guys have put a 265/35/18 on the rear. Any problems with clearance? I was going with a 225/40/18 on the front. Gonna get these wheels with christmas money.

I havent.. but I have heard of someone that did 275's in the rear and 245 up front.. with some minor mods to the fenders!!
but they should fit.. it also depends on how lowered your car is..

Edit: also as Manny said.. I wouldnt mount a 265 on an 8" wide rim.. need a 9.5 or maybe a 10"

Not sure if I would mount 265's on an 8" wheel. ;)

Check this out. 9" up front & 10" rear [+ 20mm spacer!]:

17" rims actually; and with the tires so undersized for the rims [245's], I bet the rears don't rub.
