Before the flaming starts...
This GT is my daily and I want to keep it relatively low maintenance and simple. I am going to get new wheels and I am targeting 18s in a square setup for longer tread life (full rotations). My target tire is 255/45/18. I like a square or bulging sidewall, so I am leaning towards 8" width...
Currently I'm running the stockers (235/50/18) on 18x9 (+26mm) Drifts which is far from ideal in many ways...
So I want opinions...
Should I go 8 or 9 wide?
Should I stop worrying about running 275 up front and do 9 wide with 275s all around....?
Am I crazy for not going staggered?
Thoughts on OEM wheel quality vs aftermarket...
BTW if anyone has a pic of 255 on 8 wide I would love to see it..
