    I just pickd up some monoblock type 2.
    18X8.5 et44. Front and 18x9.5 et 46
    Wondering what will be the best tire size, i am looking at 215/40/18 f 225/40/18 rear. What kinda strech is this. I dont want crazy strech, but a nice mild or avrage strech. They do poke bout a half inch so i need some strech
    Also any sugestions for color? Thwy are stock color silver polishd lips rite now.

    They poke? I have the exact same setup(width, offset) and need 15mm spacers for it to poke in rear, its barely flush with 8mm spacers in the rear. I have 225/40s all around and the stretch is perfect on 9.5s imo, I think 215/40 would be good in the front. I also did a stud conversion for the wheels but I need adapter style spacers.

    I been tossin up the idea of white for mine, well they poke in back when the car is lifted, but cant say they will once under load, eatherway. Tyere a sick wheel and huge. I can get lugs for free snd hub rings so thats no issue. But yea ima go 215-f 225 rear. Seems to be the best of both worlds strech, and drivable

    Ebay, for $200 something. I want to go back to stock facelift lights, wanna trade? Haha.

    Thanks james.

    White looks awesome on blue imp, not sure what color yours is though. And yeah once the wheels camber in the poke is gone.
