Well, my new 18's should be here today or tomorrow! :banana:

What size tires will fit? the OEM 16's ar 25.3 inches in Diameter. 225/40/18's are 25.1" and 235/40/18's are 25.4.

Bigger is better right? LOL! Will the 235's fit OK without rubbing or clearance issues? BTW, I do have Goldline lowering springs installed as well.

My apologies if this topic has been beaten to death before. My meager mind searched but found nothing.

I'd check tirerack.com or discount tire. I think one of them has a toll which will tell you comparable heights.

I went with a larger tire and had to have my computers reset so my speedometer and all that stuff would still be acurate.
BTW, I've got 18's and are lowered with no clearence issues.

Mine are 245/40/18 and they are the same height as the original setup, and I didn't have to reset the computer.
