Just ordered Enkei Kojin 18X9.5 +35 Stock suspension I was thinking Falken 255 40 18's or INDY 500 265 40 18's dont want to rub dont want a ton of wheel gap and not planning on lowering (anytime soon when I do I plan on going with Eibach Pro's) thoughts/suggestions on this setup or a different tire spec to achieve the above?

265/40 is huge. Stick with 265/35. Mine is +35 stock suspension .

265/40s are too tall.
do 255/40/18s if you dont have any plans of lowering the car. They will fill the wheel well better than 265/35s when your on stock suspension.

edit: just noticed you said +35s. With that offset, I am unsure if that extra height on the 255/40s will make you rub vs the 265/35s even on stock suspension.

10-4 probably go 265 35 and lower sooner than I had planned if I look like a mac truck thanks dude!

Thanks for the help on this thread guys. Got my Superspeed RF03RR's in 18x9.5 +38 last week, tires put on on Friday, and I mounted em saturday! Love how they came out. Tires are 265/35 on stock suspension for fitment reference for anyone looking.

sits fairly flush, maybe a tad but nothing significant. My +35s poked a tad bit on 255s, just enough to give that aggressive look.
Hey man just picked up some Kojin +35's - running Bridgestone Potenza sport tires 265 35 18. It looks amazing but I rub in the reaar a bit. Do you have any pics of your car on the 255 35's with +35 offset wheels you could send me?
