Question need tire size recommendation
how's it going guys i'm in need of new tires, i'm running VMR VB3's staggered setup 18"x8.5" +40 fronts & 18"x9.5" +45 rears wrapped with stock runflats 215/40/18 fronts & 245/35/18 rears and lowered on H&R sport springs with stock sport shocks. i get NO rubbing at all with my current setup and just want the tires a little wider but with also NO rubbing, so what sizes will work? I also want to ditch going with another run flat tire. THANKS!!

check with EAS in terms of fitment and they have a close relationship with VMR, Yokohama AD08 are excellent tires!!

Since you're getting new tires. Sign up for the track at Mfest V. If you need help. There will be plenty instructors.

spoke with charles over at VMR and he said he recommends 225/40 front and a 245/35 rear, anything wider will require fender work...what do ya'll think??

trust me, you're good! I've seen some terrible drivers on the track. Ask Albert and Joseph!
You'll do just fine. Just get that helmet from your buddies and some AD-08 and you're good!

great setup but takes a fair bit of modding to work on our 1ers.
