Hey guys, so i bought a new set of rims (tsw willows).
I didn't buy any rubber and I am unsure of what tire size would fit. I see some sponsors with tire sales so I kinda want to jump on that.
Anyone running these size rims and could send me a tire size that would fit?Thanks TM3 :)
Rim size
18x8
114.3x5

Not too sure what those last 2 numbers are, but.
215/45/18 should work well if you want to go low. (should have a little bit of a stretch.)
225/40/18 for a daily driver.

What are you lowered on (if you're lowered)?
What's the offset on the rims? Assuming its not aggressive, 225/40/18 is perfect for you.

40 offset and 76mm bore!
225/40/18 is the correct size and will keep your speedometer reading the most accurate.
Also you may need hub rings since the Mazda centre bore is 67.1mm. Although I would wait till after balance and installation to see if you experience any unnecessary vibrations etc. Centering off the bolts Instead of being hub centric is usually good enough.

Im not sure? I took down all the numbers on the box they came in. I ordered them from a well known rim shop here in hamilton so pretty sure they are right rim.
