Youll probably need a lot of modifying to your front fenders. The rears will also need to be rolled. Im running 245/40/18 in the front and 285/35/18 in the rears. All m y fenders are rolled.

I dont see how if your not rolled. Whats your your rim offset? I think you could run them, with a little bit of grinding on the inner lip in the fenderwheel compartment. JMO

Why not?? As long as the offsets fit the car then you will be fine. I am running 255/35/18 F and 295/30/18 R and I didnt have to roll or pull my fenser at all...All I did was get a alignement!

Thats pretty crazy, what offsets are your wheels, +40 (+++)?

What wheel widths are you guys running?

i have 18x10 255/35/18
and 18x11 265/35/18

my rears rub...

i was thinking of running 245/40/18 in the front and 255/35/18 in the rear....

any experts out there to give their 2 cents on stability and safety?

I essentially just dont want my tires to catch in case my suspension gives out and puts me into the wall....

looking cool is important and all ....but i'd rather not be smashed into the center divider as well....
