Changing wheel package:

Will 18 x 9 rims with 275/40/18's fit all the way around?

Will the extend past the wheel well?

How's the TireRack?

Pirelli P Zero Nero's?

Thanks for your help!

Width is fine. Too much sidewall though. You want 275/35s.

i have 275-40-18 all the way around on my 04 gt. i have a 1in drop and it only rubs if i have it at full turn. the other thing is with the 40 you will be +1, so your speedo will be off. if you put 35 you wont have to worry.

i ran 275/35/18's for many years....just switched to staggered...255/35/18 front 285/35/18 rear. I just love the look and no rubbing when i turn. And tirerack is very good...i hear p-zero's not so good. I have the goodyear eagle F1's and like them alot...much stickier than the nitto 555's i was running.

I have 265/35/18 in the front and 285/35/18 in the rear with a 2inch drop front and rear and the only way it will rub in the rear is if I have people in the back. The front doesnt rub at all
