RE: 18" amg wheels?

The offset (ET) seems ok but the tyre sizes (in an ideal world) should be 235/40R18 & 265/35R18 (correct for Euro & asia spec cars) I think NA spec is 245/40R18 & 275/35R18.

I'd advise you to go for the Euro spec, less chance of rubbing and the tyres tend to be a little cheaper.

Good luck.

RE: 18" amg wheels?

The following is the description of the tires on the rims you are interested in, 225(width)/40(height)/18(rim size) for the front with an ET(offset) of 31 and 255(width)/35(height)/18(rim size) for the rear with an ET(offset) 35. Storm's suggestion is basically indicating that you go with a wider tire all around. 10mm larger on the front and 10mm larger on the rear, the rest is the same as you first mentioned.

A lot of info on tires (tyres) can be found on www.tirerack.com
