speed werx is an unknown quantity at this point
that would be oversized, and would likely rub i think. no to mension may just look kinda off having a high wall on a 18in rim

I've got 215/35/18. You could probably get away with 215/40/18.

215/40 or 215/35 would be best

I would guess that would rub, but not too bad. A 40 or below profile would probably work better.

Why would you want to put that size tire on? I think the 40 series look thick on an 18, but a 45?............

VNlilMAN will become famous soon enoughVNlilMAN will become famous soon enough
it'll fit its just it'll look ugly.. way too thick for 18s.. even 40s is kinda too thick for 18s.
with 215-45-18s, you could probably drop your car 1.75" the lowest. you will have no gap and a bodykit will be a must cause it'll look too high.

i have 215-40-18 on neuspeed sports and even this setup looks really high. i think 225-35-18 would be perfect(might rub a lil tho). 35s are a lil too thin. i believe torreto has something like 225-45-18s or was it 225-40-18. i think its 45, dropped on ground controls, he rolled the rear fender and gutted the front fender well. he has a kit so it doesnt look to badd, not sure if he still has pictures on here tho...
