aloha every one,

what tire size do u reccomend for 18x9.0? i want a nice clean look, and my car is dropped on dropsprings. please help, for i have no knowledge of tires

 

U can go a 255/35/18 that should be the right size.

 

ok i'll look into tht one thanks

 

you gotta make sure you dont rub! also you may need coils

 

255/35 is probably closer to the proper tire size that would be recommended on a 9" wheel, but if you drive a Leggy, wheel fitment is pretty tough. What offset are your wheels and what type of springs are you lowered on? You may need to run coilovers for a little stiffer suspension set up as well as some camber adjustment. Not to mention the fact that you may want to consider a little smaller tire and slight stretch to fit them. At very least, you'd need a roll and probably a pull to fit anything decent size tire wise. Try and PM bObby on Nasioc or LegacyGT.com........He's one of the OG's in Suby wheel fitment and now (or at least I knew) has a Leggy with some aggressive fitment action going on.

 

^^^the wheel ***** has spoken

Seriously Brandon you should really make a thread on what fits and what to do to make it fit thread.

 

HA!!! Good luck getting it to fit on drop springs alone. Ask krang about the bs I went through trying to fit 18x9's. You WILL rub in the rears garrens. Even with a roll. Well, maybe if you notch that plastic piece near the door you'll be ok but chances are you'll rub. I rubbed even though I tried to camber the rear too, good luck trying to find a place to put camper bolts. Fronts were fine though on springs. On full coilovers slammed I couldnt even fit 225/45/17 with **** rim width and offset without needing a ton of camber and a roll. It's hard work going aggressive on a lgt. Honestly I'd go to a body shop and have them **** my fenders up pulling/cutting them, then body work um smooth and repaint than to go through the headache of trial and error. GL though.

 

just camber to the max and you won't rub
ask bran808 questions.. he helped me out!

 

i want to see this

 

Kind of hard since there's so many factors involved. Ride height, suspension stiffness, camber, tire sizes, fender work so on and so forth. There are some generalizations, but the more aggressive you get, the more important all those things are. They all come together hand in hand and you usually can't do one with out the other.

 

Preach. I may not be flushed out atm, but having tried and failed lol I understand the importance of all these things mentioned for sure. Too bad others don't...

 

255s on a 9 inch rim on an LGT? No way.

Okay, where there's a will there's a way, but still.

 

This man speaks the truth! Fronts are no worries, rears are the problem. If you are into the stance trend you could always stretch some 225's over them........ In addition to coils, bolts, and at the very least a fender roll.

 

Bleh I tried to give him advice. But he don't wanna listen to someone that's been there, done that. Maybe because I'm not sitting flush after what I went through makes my opinion not matter.

 

thanks every one, jon trust me i'm taking your advice into consideration, but i goin make um fit lol
