255 tyre or 245 on the rear? 18x8.5 rim offset 43+

[All_Motor]

Quick question, i have ap2 Lowered on Eibach 1" wondering if i can get away with a 255/35/18 tyre for the rear.. wheel is 18X8.5, 43+ offset. Or should i stick to 245/35/18.. What u guys reckon?


S2000 wheel guide taken from the s2ki website:

For the rear:
235 tires: +40 offset minimum (7.5” to 8.5” wide wheel)
245 tires: +45 offset minimum (7.5” to 9.0” wide wheel)
255 tires: +50 offset minimum (8.0” to 9.5” wide wheel)
265 tires: +55 offset minimum (8.5” to 9.5” wide wheel)
275 tires: +60 offset minimum (9.0” to 10.0” wide wheel)
285 tires: +65 offset minimum (9.0” to 10.0” wide wheel)

You can fit 255 :)
Eibach springs arn't that low anyway so I dont think you will have a problem.
Are you going to roll your guards?

i got 255 and my car is pretty low at the back with rolled guards and i cut my rear bar abit . so you will be fine with only 1" ride height ;)
