Hello, newbie here, i am about to buy 4 18x8.75 +35or 18x8.8 +35 XXR 527's in flat black for my box. I will also be ordering the NF210's lowering springs as soon as i order my wheels. The question is, what tire size should i go for so i don't have any rubbing issues? Is there anyone who has the NF210's with 18" wheels? Any help will be much appreciated. Thank you

Welcome!

From my understanding nfs are close to the same drop as trds and eibach prokit springs ( 2hich I currently am sellin ;) ). 1" and 1.5" f+r. As far as tires for 18s, you can go a decent size and not have much if any worry of rubbin. I personally have 245 40s on my 18s but at stock ride height. I didnt drop mine on the prokit spirings but wasnt at all worried about rubbing with what I have.

Good luck. Im sure others will chime in...
Hey slorocket thank you so much for your help i appreciate it. As far as the 245 40s i've heard people having rubbing issues while doing a full turn or when they get a bump on a bumpy road. I saw on a forum that 215/40s was the way to go but i'm still not sure yet, so i'll keep researching until i find someone with 18's and NF210 springs. I just can't wait to order my new wheels and get rid of the ugly 4x4 rear gap lol

I am on the eibach springs about the same as the nf springs and I am running 225/40 18 on front and 235/40 on back and have no issues at all! I would recommend the 225's all around unless you are gonna run staggered like me

For now i'll go with 225/40 and maybe later in the future i'll go with a staggered set up. Thank you so much miloxb!! I am now gonna order my wheels and tires thanks a lot for the help! :D
