Hey Red,
I am about to get some EKM3's and I wanted to know if your tire size was good? No rubbings ?
I was fighting between 225-40-18 and 215-40-18.

Depends how wide the wheel is. If your talking about an 8 inch wide wheel, 35 offset would be perfect. But with a 9 inch wide wheel, sticks way too far out.

I used to have 18x8 +40 and now I have 18x9.5 +40, so if that means anything I think it would fit very well. With the rim a smidge inside of the top of the fender.

Would be a good setup if you want to lower it a lot too. I went super wide lol they barely fit, but fit like a glove.

I do plan on lowering it, but not much. I would like to avoid cambering the tires. Just want a nice clean look! Probably gonna go with the 18Ă—8 +35. Again, thanks for the input!

Ah, use 'em if u got'em. I would've gone with the more popular 225/45/18. I personally don't like the rubber band look of 40s, but you're actually closer to stock at +1% speed increase compared to the +2% with 225/45.
The 225-45-18's are about 1/2 larger in diameter than the OEM 17's so your speedo would get thrown off a bit.

The 245-45-18's are almost identical to the 17" OEM diameter.
