I'm picking up xxr 530's 18x9.75 I was wondering what size tires to pick up? I dont really wanna stretch, I like having a beefy stance. Â*I'm lowered 2 inches in the front and 1.75 in the rear on springs. Oh and also will I rub with my fenders rolled? any recommendations would be awesome thanks!

Why not do 18x10 or 10.5 with a 265 Tire....

Really depends on the tires, as all tires are not the same. But since you are rolled in the rear you should be fine with either ones.

I would run a 10.5 but I haven't found a wheel really in my budget which is 1400 which includes my tires any recommendations? and xxr biggest wheel is 9.75 if they had a bigger wheel I would run it.

I have 18x9.75 and am running hankook evo v12's - 265/35/18.
It rubs on the inside tire at full lock or really big bumps.
I'm lowered on Eibach Pro Kits ...

Just throwing that out there .... 275's might be WORSE ...

All this info and yet no offset information? Clearance depends on offset as well.

I would pick up better wheels but I'm picking up a access port, upper incp, and lower with aem intake.

I would advise you to save more instead. Regardless, that set up will rub in the back. At full lock of the steering wheel you're going to hit the fender liners. A simple roll will take care of the rubbing problem if you go 265/35/18. A slightly more aggressive roll to run a 275/35/18

I already have my fenders rolled so it should be fine on a 265/35

Don't buy the other stuff so you could buy better wheels or stick with stock wheels and buy those performance stuff that you wanted. Save up for a better set. Don't be in a rush patience will pay off.
