He did in fact have rubbing issues with the rear fenders, requiring modifications to the fenders in order for the rears to clear. The Toyo R888's run much wider than a normal tire, approximately one full size up from a typical street tire, so we would recommend the 255/35/18 Toyo R888 if you are looking to use a similar setup as those tires have about the same amount of tire width as a 265/35/18 street tire, and it also reduces the need of major fender rolling or negative camber in the rear. Depending on the ride height your car is at, there may be a need for a slight fender roll, but in most cases the rear wheels with 255/35/18 Toyo R888's don't have any fitment issues.
I see, whats the price for the exact set up?
