  • 18X8 or 18X9?????

    I have a 94 camaro, and was wondering if i should go 18X8 or 18X9. will the 9's rub, or does neone have problems. ALso, the tires i'm getting are 245-40-18. will they fit the 9's, or look sweet on the 8's. Please help me make a wise decision. PS. How much do 18's throw off the speedo???

    18's with that size will not throw off your speedo.. the diff. is so minimal you wont notice..

    ive had that same setup on 18X9's for two years and have had no tire rub with stock suspension

      if you are going with 245 tires then the 8's will be fine. you can go to 275 tires with 9's.

              So I am thinking the 9's, but will the tire look small on them, or should i stick witht the 8's. Either way, i'm getting the 245's for now because the price is right on them!
