So i finally upgraded my rims to the well known deep dish 18" billets, Yes i know how unique but you have to admit they look sexy especially black on black car. Well since i only ordered the rims i need to buy tires this weekend. Can anyone send pics of their 18"s and what size tires they are running.


Also my car is not lowered if that helps.

Thanks!

congrats bro, I cant help you on the tires though...

I would like to see some pictures after you get these on there. If it were me I'd look at something about stock overall diameter (27.2") in front and go for something 275+mm wide in the back with an overall diameter of 27.2-28.1".

I can't help you on the pics but quite a few members run the DD Billets so you shouldn't have a problem getting someone to post up.
Congratulations on the wheels, they look awesome .

My suggestion for tires are as follows.

Fronts - 255/45/18's

Rears Assuming you have 18x10's- If you want stock height - 285/40/18
But for me I would get 295/45/18's or 305/45/18 DR's.

Those last tires are tall but really kill the wheel gap and are wide.

If you have 18x9's in the rear 275's are as wide as you can go.

Riptide

295/45/18= 28.45" overall diameter
235/55/17= 27.18" overall diameter (stock)

I also like the idea of filling out that gap some more but man that is going to raise that rear end quite a bit.

Yes i dod get 18x10 in the rear and its a V6 stock height with the V6 bumpers so 20's were out of the question. I do agree 20's look great on a GT though. Does anyone have pics so i can compare? I dont want to make the rims look smaller because the tire is so thich you get wat im sayin?

In that case you would want a shorter tire and lower the car to give the illusion of larger wheels.

Gothca i guess lowering it will be later on then...also i know my TPMS feature is going to be disabled because im not replacing the current one. Just plan to hit the reset button everytime i get into the car. THink thats a good idea?
