Does anyone here have Avant Garde wheels? If so, what are the tire size recommendations for 18"? Will they fit on stock tires?

I was able to get a company car until summer time arrives so I don't think I'll be needing the tires. but thanks again for your help. I'll let you know if I decide to get tires for the next winter!

Hey fabr, Both are made by Carbon8. The CF Vented Hood is 21 lbs. 2x2 weave ( I love this hood btw!! ) The CF CSL Trunk I believe I can get in 1x1 and 2x2 weave, but I can confirm tonight as my list is at home. Not sure the weight, but its significantly lighter as I have one on my car right now. |

Recommended tire sizes for a 18" wheel would be an 18" tire... Unless you mean width, then we would need to know the width of the wheel.. Should really post this in the wheel/Tire section.

i'm looking into buying 18" M359 wheels .. however, I'm not sure if it will fit my current stock tires (225/40/18 & 255/35/18). I was told if i fit these rims on my stock tires... it'll looked stretched. And I'm asking if anyone here has got 18" Avante Garde wheels.. what tire specs are best. does that make any sense now? lol

But I researched the wheels and they basically only have 2 sizes for the 18" setup. Now you can choose to go stagger, which is what they probably laid out 8.5 and 9.5 or you can go square 9.5 9.5 or 8.5 8.5. Now assuming you want to go stagger you would probably want 245/35/18 and 265/35/18. If you want 8.5 square you can do 255/35/18 with a spacer in the rear. If you want 9.5 square you can do 255/35/18 and 265/25/18.

Unfortunately not they will not. The M3 hood is a little longer, so these would be too short and look off if you tried to install them on your car.
Only thing that's an exact match are the Trunks I am selling. Everything else is non-M3 at the moment. |

All jokes aside, that value represents the width of the wheel in inches.
