18' Speedline Turini's
Hi, I'm about to purchase a set of 8 x18 Speedline Turini's and was just wondering what size tyres to fit without them Rubbing.
They are going onto a 98 STI Wagon with a set of Eibach springs fitted.
Thanks In advance.
Cheers
John

Thanks for the replys lads, I want the best for comfort and rim protection as Our B-roads over here are a disgrace and I do bugger all motorway miles.
would 225/35 or 40 be a better option.

225/40 are for newage cars and may scrub, traditionally for classics you should fit 215/35/18 but they look well stretched on an 8" rim, see elmers old RB5.
You may get away with 225/35's without major issues though as STi's shouldn't have the plastic liners like UK spec cars.

Ah thanks, I did see that size on a blob eye alright, I'll have a chat with the tyre man and see what he says.
Once again thanks for the help.
