They are a very common tire. Size either 235/40/18 (factory) or 245/40/18 is about the only option. Haven't seen anyone running a 255 on a factory wheel, so I don't know if that would work well.

Great choice. I'd go with 245/40R18.

Yeah, I just edited my post with the size. 245/40/18 is the way to go.

I am going down to a 17x8 wheel to get 255 tires on. Other people have as similar set up to this, so I hope it works out.

Thank you I will try those setup

Will do.

255-35-18 fit on the OEM Si/sport wheels, there are a few posts on FB with people running that size, tight but fits.

Tires I would look at Nitto, Toyo, Falken and Hankook

We need to see the wheel offset to give you good advice.

 

[phillystyle17_si]

offset is 40mm

Looks good man! Is that stock height? And what were the final wheel and tire specs you went with?

Stock height. Motegi Racing 17x8 +40 offset. RE-71 255/40/17.

I am not sure, but I am running +40 offset and the wheels do stick out a hair. You might have to go with +45s like the TRMotorsport FF10 wheels.
