Will Stock OEM 18 Tires fit my New Axis Reverb Rims??

hey i just picked up a set of (4) Axis Reverb rims
The specs on all 4 Rims are 18x8.5 +15 Offset

I was just wondering if my Stock OEM Coupe 18's Tires
would fit my new Axis rims..
The tires i have on my OEM 18's are
225/45/18 front 245/45/18 rears


any feedback would be appreciated

^yes they should.
The fitment will be better than oem, but you'll want spacers for the rears. At least 20mm!

I PMED RELUDE97
about my situation and
this is what he said...


Those tires will fit, the 225 will be quite stretched on the 8.5" wheel though. I wouldn't recommend it, I would run a 245/40/18 on the front instead. As far as the lugs are concerned, I'm not sure. I would run 10mm spacers front and 15mm spacers rear for a decently flush look


looks like ill be buying new front tires

^they will fit, but they WILL be pretty stretched. Would i say it's dangerous, prob. not, i've seen alot worse setups on DD's.(ie 235 on 10in wheels)
you can run them!
