I've been looking for some new wheels for my soarer for a while now without any luck. As my tyres are becoming badly bald now, I'm getting pretty desperate. I've found some wheels at a good price that'll look great on the car but I'm not sure if they'll fit. They're FRONT: 225/40/R18 and BACK:255/55/R18

Does anyone know if these will fit? Cheers.

your in luck, that's what im running on my car but the back is 255/45/18 kumho ku21.

the speedo is exact. eg it reads 110 you are doing 110 etc.

its a nice width at the rear but you could go wider, but i prefer 255. looks good

it all depends on the wallet aswell

You should not have any problems with the tyre size but more importantly is the stud pattern 5x114.3 and what offset are they?
