I've been running 265/35/18s up front and 335/30/18's out back for years. It's all about the right wheel size and offset.

wow 335s that must look sinister. most wheels i find are only 18x10s for the rear and between 40-45 mm offset and fronts are 18x9s with 30-35mm offset. what offset are you running on yours? i would like to find a set of 18x10.5 or 11 wide but they seem far and in between.

Stock 18" bullets (widened to 11" out back) with a 1.250 spacer front and rear.
(Ends up being 5.5" front and 8" of back spacing in the rear)

I ran ZE Boost 18x9 with 255/45's on the front and 18x10 with 305/45/18 M/T's on the rear.

New setup is Weld S76 18x8 on the front with the same tires and 18x10 on the rear with the same tires.

Here is the pics. 305/45r18 NT05R on stock springs. Fiancé was loaded.

Also my car isn't modded for looks. All performance and then the exterior mods came. Runs 11.5>less now. The way it sits on the street with me behind the wheel. No cool down. IAT's never pull timing etc..... No race trim.
