Yes, perfect fit. You can use the stock lugs with OEM monoblocks.

I used 235/40-18 front and 265/35-18 rear. A less aggressive combo would be 225s up front and 255s in back.

I'm running Michelin PS2s. Sorry, don't know anything about the DWS by Continental.

so i did the 235/35/18 with 255/35/18 so far it looks great i think i might do a 1 inch drop all around with lowering springs any idea on what springs i should use?

Vogtland, they only offer a 1.4" drop but you adjust the drop with larger spring pads.
