Ok.... I ordered new volk's

18, 8.5, +30 offset

I keep hearing tons of different opinions on which tires will fit and which wont and now im confused.

Im looking to run either the KD's or the RA-1's

What tire size would be OPTIMAL for these rims????

I will roll the fenders so please keep in mind im looking for the OPTIMAL SIZE and not what works or what wont rub.....looking for THE BEST SIZE

Thanks a lot for any comments and help.

are you going to be tracking the tires your putting on the wheels? if not Id say the KD if you are go with the RA-1

Your going to track you Volks??? I hope you have money, because you most likely will dent them after a couple of track days....
