Tire/Wheel Fitment Question! Help please!
Hi guys, I plan on purchasing the Yokohama Advan RZs 18" set really soon

but my RFTs are already in need of replacing, they are basically bald

so i want to buy tires that will fit both my OEMwheels for the time-being and keep the same set of tires for when I get the Advans.

The Advan RZ 18" dimensions are such:

Front: 18" - 8.0 et45
Rear: 18" -9.0 et50

The recommended tire size for the Advan RZ's are

225/35 R18 and 255/30 R18

If i buy some Michelin PS2s in the tire size listed above, will they fit my OEM wheels for now?

Thanks so much,
I know nothing about wheels and tires

you could go 225/40 and 255/35 if you wanted to. either way, yes they will fit your stock wheels.

hi again,

which tires would you all recommend that are less expensive than the Micheline PS2s?

TheRustler · 12-14-2009, 08:46 PM

take a look at the Dunlop Direzza Star Specs in those sizes. those tires were amazing.
