I wonder if 275/35/18 will be okay for the front???
The wheel size is 18 x 9.5 with +22 offset.
It's going to be close, but could work... A 275/35/18 Continential (rebranded Hoosier ) fits on a 10" ET 22 wheel....
However... the Hankook Ventus 27/35/18 was not anywhere near fitting.. If the C91 Hankook has similar dimensions it will be really tough although the 9.5" wheel will help to avoid rubbing inside the front wheelhouse.. The key issue will be how the shoulders of the tire fit with respect to the front springs. The Hankook is kinda rounded and taller than the hoosiers.. I would check the tire specs on both the Hankook tires and the Hoosier before plunking down the cash. Maybe see if you can find a used tire on ebay to test fit?
