How wide on 264s

evilstib · 07-16-2011, 01:30 PM

Hello All,

I'm dropping the car on the Eibach pro springs and want to replace the run flats.

How wide can you go on the front/read on the stock 264 rims? I might replace them, but am curious if I don't have to.

Thanks.

235/40-18 & 255/35-18

I was under the impression the widest you could go was 225/40 & 255/35...?

The best fitmnet is 225/255. But people have proven that 235/265 fits, but it may rub depending on tire and load in car.

And will probably rub as I'm dropping the car on Eibach pro springs and FSDs

For me, bridgestone re01r in 235/40-18 on oem front wheel does not rub, lowered to about Eibach-height in the front. Works with or without a 10mm spacer.
