^I just sold the set of 718's I had to buy VB3's haha. Sick wheels.
If you're going with drop and don't want to roll fenders, I'd say 225's and 245's.

You will have to roll your fenders or you're probably going to be rubbing.. even at stock height. Keep in mind, I believe sedans don't have as much clearance as coupes.

Wait I just checked my fenders and I think there rolled! I guess from previous owner. What do unmolested fenders look like on our cars?
Edit: nvm I don't think mine are rolled but the fronts have nothing to roll it's completely touching the fender idk if that's how our are my rear are kinda curved idk what I'm talking about lol Last edited by THECLEANERBEAMER; 12-01-2012 at 11:16 PM. |

I first thought mine were rolled too, when I felt them.. but I was told they just have some black stuff (unsure what it's called) that needs to be taken out prior to rolling the fender.
Take a picture and post it up!

Wouldn't you be rubbing if you went wider?

I have to measure it to see how much clearance I actually have. But right now I don't rub in the rear.

So would I rub with 235/255? That's what vmr recommends right? Or should I try 225/255?

Well, you have a sedan and your fenders aren't rolled.. I'd go 225/245 at stock height. If you plan to go lower (suspension wise), you'll have to roll your fenders.
I have a coupe and that's what I'm going to run.

I have 235/255 and only my front is rolled. And i have aftermarket suspension. Perfect match!

I'm going 225/245 just to be safe, and plus those are my stock widths so why not

I have a sedan and running 235 up front. Would definitely recommend 235 up front. I am running 265 in the rear but have to pull my fenders to do so. 255 would work without a pull. My offset is 35 f and 45 r. Hope that helps.

How do you think 255 be without a roll?
