tyres size suggestion !!!

[NSXsan]

I'm getting a new wheels, size F 18"x7.5" , R 18"x9"
actually I'm thinking 215/35/18 and 255/35/18
is that the right choice ?
thanks

That set up sounds good. But you may want to go wider in the rear...

oh no , do you think so ??? but is that gonna be
a problem with 18x9 ? because the wheels its already
been order, and its should be coming soon hopefully

The wheel sizes are fine. I might suggest 265/35-18 in rear, rather than 255/35-18, but either one will be okay.

255.35.18 in the rear is fine. I just got that size put on my 18x10's in the rear and it looks great. I will probably get the 265's when they wear out though, as 265's will look even better (but still not too brawny) .

do you think 265/35/18 ok with 18"x9" ?
I thought 265 its good with 9.5" . . . .
ok so I know now what size to choose,
thanks a lot guys

You can look up the range of approved tire widths for whatever tire you are planning to use. For example, the Bridgestone Potenza S-03 in that size is approved for rim widths of 9.0 to 10.5 inches. So you can certainly mount it on an 18x9 wheel. Since that's the low end of the approved range, it may look like it bulges out slightly, more so than with a 255/35-18, which is approved for 8.5-10.0 inch widths.
