Hi guys. Got a CL9. Need some recommedations on tyre sizes. Got 18x8 +37 front and 18x9 +32 rear wheels. I need to know what sizes to get to have a little of that stretched look. Lowest profile i wanna go is 40, but i prefer 45. If you have pics of examples that would be awsome. I will be lowering to about 2 finger gap. Please help.

205 is quite flush on 7", so should stretch a bit on the 8" although I've seen people use 195 on 8" for quite a strong stretched look.

Maybe 225 or 215 for the 9"?

on my 7s, ive got 195/50, and its barely stretched, its practically straight sidewall.

so on an 8 id go a 195 for a stretched look.

Yeah its looking like 215/40 for front and 225/40 for rear. Only want that slight stretched look, nothing crazy. Awsome website trism!

Each tyre is different I guess, but the 215 for an 8 and 225 for 9 is about right, for a slightly stretched look. I run 8.5 with 215 and 9.5 with 235 RE001's and they don't look too stretched with a 45 profile.
