If you were running on both sides then going with the 285 is going to be your safe bet, but if you were only rubbing on the nitto side then the 295 hankooks SHOULD clear the fenders.

Also, these are the 18s aren't they?
yeah these are the 18" ccw. which I just put up for sale.

I think I'll go with the 285.

They stretch pretty decent. I wouldn't say they run large myself. They're closer to a true sizing.

However, you're going to have uneven stretch running the 225 and 255. The front will be more stretched than the rear. I'd suggest going to a 235/35 in front.

Also, 225/35 on 10.5 is a sketchy stretch. Sure it's DOABLE. But not something all tire shops are going to take on.

Check out the aggressive offsets and fat tire thread in the media share. There is a few guys running 305 and 315s IIRC.

THANK YOU so much this is the help i needed...i thought that a 225 would be more even with a 255...but thats why i asked...i hate an uneven stretch and dont want to go more than i need. Thanks again everyone for help!

You're not gonna wanna do this with basics and no camber adjustment, I can tell you that much.

235/35 is going to be your best bet on tire size, a pull will more than likely be necessary if you choose to stick with those Teins and not run any camber.

I would suggest them to help perfect the fitment of the wheels. Running aggressive in the front is the most crucial as you can easily eat your fenders and be $1000 in repairs with a single turn of the wheel or slight divit in the road.

Nothing wrong with Basics, they're great to start out with and fine for normal daily driving. But for running an aggressive set up they aren't going to handle it very well.
1. No dampening, no control!
2. Soft springs easily compress!
3. They don't go low.

You'll want dampening to to control your stiffness and keep the wheels from biting the fenders. The stiffness also comes into play with that. The height, you need to be low to pull this set up off, if you're high then it's going to low wack. From my experience with Basics, they just don't get low enough!

Yea got a deal in these so I was like hey why not .. But if i was going to run this set up what's my best option? With stock camber for now because I'm planing on getting arms in the next month ? Fender work ect?

Best option. Buy front camber arms, run 235/35 and pull as much camber as you can handle to avoid doing fender work.

Remember, tires and camber are cheaper than replacing fenders and 1/4s.
