on my model Altima u usually dont call for anything less than a 45 sidewall for 18s. being the size of the wheelwells, and it can fit 22s no rub. but they dont make a 205/45/18, just a 205/40/18. a guy is trading me his Yokahama 215/45/18 for my 225/40/18s. this is cause the 35 offset has the tires in the back rubbing just a lil when i hit bumps, and i plan on throwin the front down another inch.
soooo im just doing this to tuck a lil tire, since at my lowest point on static i wont tuck 40 sidewall 18s. this car needs at least 19s, so im satisfied with the tucked tire look for a daily driver. and curve the sidewall to make more clearance. and if its enough clearance, i can put some spacers on for a lil more "poke" if i can use that work lol. nothing crazy aggressive for now, maybe next year when i can afford to

Nice thread, I am looking for the same thing! Keeping an eye out for pics and this thread....
BTW, to all those saying that "more tire stretch" is needed, what maximum wheel width would be suggested/recommended, since the recommended wheel width range for most 215/45/18 tires are 7"-8", possibly 8-1/2".... Thanks! (Sorry if this seems like a thread jack, but seems somewhat relevant ;-P).

Obviously, many people have pushed tires beyond their recommended range in wheel widths as suggested by the tire manufacturer(s), but just researching the "safe" limits ... LOL... Thanks!.

ya i know it wasnt on tyrestretch cause i tried lol. but yeah not looking for a stretch on an 8 at all, just shavin some off the side to get more clearance without rolling fenders. ill go with more aggressive wheels later just for now i want to tuck tires. and cause of my height i think a 45 sidewall is best for my Altima. 18s arent that big for my model so thats why a 45 sidewall will work. and they dont make a 205/45/18 unfortunately
but i do have my eye on some cheap rims, gold Rays-style rims (knockoffs nor Rotas though) that are as follows:
F= 18x8.5 25offset R= 18x9.5 35 offset
i think those sizes would be perfect for my ride. cause i have a 18x8 35 offset now and it doesnt sit flush but comes out pretty nice!
