I am looking at getting a set of 18in wheels and I have a few questions. Anyone know anything about ADR wheels???? What is the best size of tire to get??? A friend of mine suggested 245/40-18 but I'm not sure. Thanks for the help.

I never heard of ADR wheels, but 245-40s will work.<b>99 Camaro Z28 A4</b><br />R.I.P. 00 Firebird 3.8<br />14.89 @ 90, 2.03 60\' -
As long as you get the correct offset for the WIDTH of the wheel, the HEIGHT is fine. As for tires, the WS6/SS/Firehawk come with 275/40's, but hey are on 17" wheels. If you want to go 18" the correct tire size is 275/35/18, this way the wheel/tire combo won't throw off your speedo.
I'm going with 18's and 245/40 rubber in the front and 275/35 rubber in the back. I'm going with narrower rubber on the front, because the turn-in is better.
Any other questions, just ask.

never heard of ADR. I wouldn't go any bigger than the wheels than 275/35 on back and front. 275 on the front will rub slightly on hard turns. Thye will also rub going slowly or at a stop.

Those are very nice wheels, and a nice price too!
If I may make a suggestion, if you want them, just buy them, don't bid. I recently stole some 16x8 torque thrust IIs that way for 680 dollars shipped. If I didn't have those coming to me, I would snatch these from under you.<b>1998 Firebird 3800 Series II, A4</b><br />Direct-Flo Lid,K&N Filter,DEE TB Spacer,TPS-TEC,ZZP Mini-AFC,Raised and Cutout Airbox 7mm,BMR STB & Boxed LCAs,KYB AGX Shocks,Drilled/Slotted Rotors,180* Thermo,2.5\" Catco Cat,Dynomax 2.75\" custom catback,Kumho Ecstas/245,Jet Stage 2,3.42,Edge Racing 2870 Stall,B&M Tranny Cooler,B&M Deep Tranny Pan,LSD,AAM Girdle,1LE DS,NX Wet Kit,MSD DIS-4,MSD Blaster Coil Packs,Taylor Spiro Pro 8mm Wires,NGK TR6\'S gapped .045,ZZP UD WP Pulley,SLP Fan Switch,TT II\'s<br />N/A: 15.6342 @ 88.44 (On stock converter.

My rims are 18x9 and I use 275/35-18 tires. They have the same outer diameter as the stock wheels.

17x7 is narrower than your stock wheel. If you go with a 17" wheel you should at least get something 9" or wider.2002 5-spd NBM Camaro

I run a 275/35/18 in the rear, but also are 10.5 inch wheels, so its not nearly wide enough. Prolly gonan go to a 285/35 and hope they dont rub.
