I'm also interested in these wheels. Going by their website I think they only come in 18x9.5 +20, +30 and +35 . I'm not sure where you got 18x8.5 +25??

I want to try and fit a ET street radial 305/45/18 to the rear of an fg sedan . The tyre is only about 20mm wider than a 275/40/17 so on a 9.5 +35 do you guys think I will have any issue with fittment?

You'll need rolled and pumped guards and not too low to try make that work. that's a fairly wide tyre with a lot of side wall. Imagine your stock rear wheels being about 18mm further out towards the guard and that's just the wheel, then the tyre will be at least about 10-20mm wider than that. So imagine 40mm further out from where it is now. Plus it wouldn't be advised to go so wide on a 9.5" 305 is better suited for 10 or 10.5" wheel

I noticed in another thread that a couple of people have fitted 305/25r20 nitto invo . Going by nitto and mickey Thompson web site the invos are 12.05 inches overall in width and the m/t are 11.8 so I kind of asummed they would fit with the right offset. ( M/t approved rims for 305/45r18 are 9.5-11 in width.)

Only thing I haven't taken into account is how tall the tyre is .I'm not sure if it will even fit , 28.8 inches in diameter is a really tall tyre . I will get the tape out tomorrow and have a look.

I just figured et streets would be wide. There's a couple running 295 and 305 but invo's have a rounded shoulder so fit better than a lot of others. And yea overall diameter will make a difference, still recommend guard work n not too much low
