On a 2004 6mt, are the front and the back rims the same size. Would I have a problem putting 245/45/18 winter tires on the fronts? TIA

 

Yes, front and back are the same width (8"). However, I would not put the same tire size front and rear. It will upset the stagger built into our cars. The outside diameter of the wheel/tire combo is 1" smaller in front, than in back. This difference should be maintained, or you will upset VDC, TC, and the good handling characteristics built into the coupe.

I have 225/50/17 and 225/55/17 winters. I had them on for a couple of days about 2 weeks ago. I didnt notice any issues with VDC, TC. I wanted the 245 for the rear but couldnt find them, also the guy at the dealer told me that 225 all around will be fine.

Did you get that set up from the dealer? Do you have the 6mt, if so i assume that they clear the Brembos. If you bought them from somewhere can you please direct me to the place as I am in need of winter tires badly.

 

I was actually going to ask a similar question. What's the widest and largest size rims we can fit on front and back? I know people have 20" on the rears. I'm looking at 19x10.5 in the back. Will I have any problems fitting these? If so I can always get 9.5 but I like more grip.
