Inspired, got a pic or 2 of how they fit? Lowered? Did you relocate the rear bumper bolt?

Pictures are in my member's ride thread. yes bolts are relocated, fenders are rolled, slammed to the ground.

The size you planning on getting for the rear is not going to work its going to be much taller than the 225. according to discount website its going to be bout .8 bigger so you might rub and cut the tire up

I understand it is larger, I'm not planning on getting an unsuggested tire size, I already have it. I bought the wheels and tires before I thought to get on a forum and do research. What I am trying to do know is find a solution to the problem I created, while not spending a ton of money for an entire new set of tires. Which wouldn't be a bad idea, but then I have no money to do suspension.

roll/pull the fender and it might fit what kind of f1s you get

yea for a 245, you are gonna have to now pull the fenders to fit that... if you didnt mount them then i suggest u return them for a 225. either way, pulling the fenders PROPERLY AND WELL DONE is gonna cost more than just getting the new recommended tire size. you can fit a 245 but if your lowered, it wont work well or ur gonna get a lot of curb rash on your body when you hit a bump
245 MAYBE on a 7th gen but definitely not on a 6th gen

Instead of buying suspension why not buy tires that have more than 50% tread on them?

I just found a set of 4 225/40-18 michelin pilot sports 75% tread. They are sitting in my garage. Before I pay to have them mounted I want to make sure I won't have any problems including the rear bumper bolt, remember these are going on a 18x8 with 40 offset. Thanks for all the help guys, I'm just going sell the bigger ones and put that money back towards my suspension.

Are you lowered? They're going to rub....

Am I retarded? I thought every post so far applying to what I originally posted as far as the rims and suspension goal told me to buy 225/40-18. Now you are saying it will rub????
