Got a set of 18's turning up tomorrow (hopefully) just wondering what the best size tyres would be? I'm thinking 235/40. Just dont want any clearance issues to the guard. Lowered springs, not SL or UL if that helps. Any ideas would be great.

Yeah i have the same 235/40/18 on superlows, mine scrubbed out a bit on the front, but being a 8, pulled it down a bit at the front.

Not too bad of a ride though, obviosly a bit bumpier than stock wheels, but ya get that i spose.
