For reference:

245/40 -0.99% smaller than stock
275/35 -1.74% smaller than stock
SO I AM NOW GOING TO PRINT THIS OFF AND STICK IT TO THE CAR>:thump:

The 8-5" /18 ARC 8's have an offset of 38 but the ARC 7's have a 35 -- does it matter which one? I notice that it must be older stock but EAS has a set of them and the 8.5's are actually offset 45 which I think would keep them in more - which is preferable ?
