Tire fitment questions? 18X8 wheels. help
18x8 all around.
I have two 245/40 18 sized tires that I got for cheap. So i want to put these on in the rear.
Now my question is... What size tires do i get in the front so that the overall diameter is the same (so that the car runs smoothly with no ESP intervention).
I am staggering the tires so I would like to go 225 sized tire in the front but dont know what size profile(sidewall) i should go. Is there any specific way to find this out, or can anyone help?
I posted this in the tire section, with no response. so hopefully you guys can help.

Using that tool to calculate, if you are going to use 245/40 on the back then you gotta use 225/45 in the front.
You'd get an even better match using 255/35/18 and 225/40/18 but I don't think you can get that 255 on an 8" wide rim. Plus, as you said, you have those 245's already cheap.

if he isn't running hub rings chances are they are Audi center bore. But depends on if you have a connection with shops that can machine out the centerbore for you.

I bought some used Carlssons 1/16 ULs which were susposed to be 19". The seller thought they were 19" but they were 20". An honest mistake on his part. I might just ship them back to him, but he said he would be willing to pay extra for tires and adatpers to make it work on my car. I had already ordered 10mm and 12mm spacers from Carlsson via HMS and 235/265 tires from rlee02135 which would have worked perfectly if it was the 19" set up.
Here is the info....
Authentic Carlsson 1/16 ULs
Front: et 40 20"x 8.5" with 255/35/20
Back: et 45 20"x 9.5" with 275/35/20
I know the tires are huge, but I got those with the rims. What size tires and Carlsson Adapters should I get to make these work? Do you think I should just return these? I'm pretty bummed right now and I don't think 20" with thin tires would be a smart idea on Michigan roads. Suggestions on what to do?

tires. since these are 20" I would probably keep it 225/30/20 on the front and 245 or 255/30/20 on the rear. Those are your best options on tires. you will need to raise the car up for 20" clearance too.
