tire size suggestions?
alright so i changed my mind again on wheels. This wheels are 18x7.5 +32 all around. Maybe I should even try to get a real mild stretch? What tires do you guys suggest me to get. I was thinking like 205/40/18. Help please

Quit thinking about 18's unless you want to run 205/35x18 tires.. 205/40x18's will be a full inch bigger than stock and any offset less than 50 mm will rub. 205/40x17's fit nicely on 42 mm offset wheels if not lowered, and 45 mm if it is. This applies to 08 and NOT 09 Fits.

So you're running 205/40x18's on 18x7.5/32 mm offset wheels. Let's see, the wheel pushes out 2.5" and the tire is 24.45" in diameter compared to 23.44". Take a picture for us.

But he's got a point.
Good luck with that setup.
