Can I Run Stock RF's With VMR 18" CSL's?

I'm planning on getting VMR 18"x8.5" +40 Front / 18"x9.5" +45 Rear CSL's soon and i was wondering if i could run my stock RF's on them? reason why is i still have a lot of meat on the tires and they really don't bother me like they do most people on the forum so i would like to use them up first before buying new rubber. Thanks in advance!

The tires would stretch and it's not ideal but it'll work. Search CSL reps, I could swear there was a lowered SGM car that was running the stock sizes.

actually a bunch of people run stock sizes on the VMR's. It works fine, not the most convenient, and lets face it, part of the reason u go wider is to get wider tires. But I plan on running with stock tires till i run out of thread in which time I'll switch to something better.

Stock tires sizes will be ok to stretch across the wheels, but I recommend just a bit larger depending on the exact tires you have on.

If you have any questions, PM me directly so I can help you out
