Question Fitment Check: 18x10et25 for JRZ,MCS,MOTON guys

Hey guys!

Just a quick fitment/clearance check;

18x10et25 . 275-35-18 NT01

Guys with 6" springs/2.25 - are you clearing without spacer? If not what's smallest size spacer are you finding success with?

Cheers thanks in advance!

MCS doubles, 6" x 2.25" spring, no tender, 18x10.5 ET27 clears no problem unless the tire has a big rim protector (NT01s do not). No problem, bolt on and go.

moton 3way with tender (very soft spring) spring
F : 18 X 10.5 et20 with 1.5mm spacer
R : 18 X 10.5 et20
A052 295-35-18 square

no problem with coilover

If no 1.5mm in F, slightly contact in track driving. no contact in normal driving.

You must mean 295/30/18. The 35 series A052 would destroy Fenders with those wheel specs!

Hey slicer, you seem to have some knowledge about tire/wheel fitment for our cars.
I want to buy titan T-S5 forged wheels 18X10.5 +25 square set up.
Will advan AO 52 295/30 tire be too wide for these wheels?

You can do it but you'll need specific front suspension setup, short spring, lots of camber, front spacer in most instances and even then the back of front fender liners will rub. I'm not a fan of 295 in front for street use. Track use only

I am planning on running bfg R1 285/30 square with the first set of these wheels, and advan AO 52 265front 295 rear with the second set.
But the question is, will 295/30 AO52 tire be too wide for these wheels?

I'm on a 5.5" spring + helper which makes it just over 6". 275's should fit fairly easily on a 10" wheel with a 6". I believe I was running a 15 or 17mm spacer on an ET35 18x10 wheel for an effective offset of ~ET18-20.

I had 6" with helper and it did not fit, required 3mm spacer. Never tested it on its own.

Yes, on my JRZs - 6" spring in front. Only have to use spacers with certain 275/35 tires (Nankang AR1, BFG R1S are huge)
