Rim and tire Fitment

BOLT PATTERN IS 5 X 114.3

I BELIEVE THE REST OF THE SPECS ARE OK BUT SOMEONE MIGHT WANT TO CONFIRM THIS..BOLT PATTERN IS NOT HOWEVER

for 18x8 i would go with a 40 offset. that will sit pretty flush with you fender and in your wheel well without rolling or cuting the rear fenders.

Also the Solara can only use 5x114.3 bolt pattern as stated above.

with 8" wide rims you should go with 235/40 tires. 245 it too wide and will rub. I tried 245 with my 8.5 wide rims and i was rubbing big time.

hope this helps

Hey,

Well this weekend I put some 18 inch rims and 235-40-18 sized tires, and for the back, the rear tires rubbed on my struts. To fix this I had quater inch spacer plates put on. The front tires cleared perfectly with no rubbing.
