    Wideness of Rims/Tires for lowering

    hey im getting h&r springs for my c36 and i have carlsson 2/5 rims. i dont know how wide they are cuz theyre out getting powdercoated now but i know they are pretty wide

    on the website it says they make them in either

    front i think is 8.5x18
    and back is 10x18



    if they are 10x18 which i think they are will it interfere with my lowering??

    thanks!

    hm if you put 18 x 10 on front it might scrape or hit something...

    like nolte said, 35mm up front, and 40 rear would be the best. 225 up front, 265 rear, you'll probably need to pull the rear wheel arch just a touch when it lowered, but fitment shouldn't be bad at all (depending on your offsets)
