+43 18x8...245x35x18 fit???

04 STI...currently running 225x40x18 Falken ST-115 on +43 Offset Gram Light 57f-pro's...

I've done a lot of searching but I have found no answer as specific to what I am about to ask...

Does anyone have a similar setup (04 STI/18x8/Gram Light or Volks in +43 offset)

I am running stock STI struts with Prodrive springs...not much of a drop...

1. I would like to get 245x35x18 or 245x40x18...does anyone have either of these size on their wheels right now?

2. If so, please note down the Brand and Model of tire you are using to fit this offset...

3. Please also note if you have had to roll your fenders...or need wheel spacers...

Thanks in advance

None...

I'm sure I could go wider...many of the Gram Lights and Volks come in this offset and width...

I just posted this up to see if anybody is running wider than 225's...

That's sum phat wheels you're running Brent!

You might have to roll the fender if you're going that wide... I'll suggest 235 to be on the safe side. With your lower offset... spacer might caz make ur wheel stick out even more... so be careful.
