I also want to run a 245 or 255/40-18 on an 8" wheel in the front. what backspace will work here? I have coilovers, so I am trying to get the front fairly low, while still being able to turn without rubbing. Thanks for the help. Jonathan
255/45's on a 8" wide wheel works beautifully,a 295/40 or 305/35 fits easily as well with some seat belt hump adjustments on a 10" wide wheel with a 5.75" b/s.
