Would hate to say they won't and they end up being a problem, wide fronts are a bit tricky, and those Gs I linked were running 20s which have a bit more clearance as that bend in the steering knuckle comes more into play as the wheel diameter goes down. If there's any way you can get a test fit that would be ideal.

I live near TF Works in IL, they have a bunch of wheels there. I already emailed them asking if they can test fitments before pulling the trigger.

Getting a new set of rims soon. 8.5" in the front and 10" in the back. What would be the best tire size for this? Also any recommended summer tires would be helpful. Looking at hankook rn.
Thanks

Sedan, coupe, RWD or AWD and Sport or non-sport pkg?? Be sure to order correct offsets for your vehicle, this will determine how much tire you can run. Also what diameter are the wheels you're wanting?

20x8.5 +35 can run up to a 255/35/20
20x10 +35 can run up to a 285/30/20

If you were to match up sets I'd run either a 245/35F & 275/30R OR 255/35F & 285/30R

Question 18x8.5/114.3 +38

I have a 2011 XS COUPE, and im wondering if 18x8.5/114.3 +38 is a big enough rim to clear the big brakes. Has anyone else run this size?
Kal tire can't confrim it and neither could any dealerships in my area.

I was hoping to go up to 265/35 or 30 if I had to on my 20x8.5 ET35 squared setup. That won't work?

Given the 2010 GTR wheels are a tight fit on a sedan, what would the ideal tire size be?
