7.5 you could have fit the 235/40's. They are even closer outer diam and almost a half inch wider.

Sorry, I meant 235/35's that is what Badmunkey is running on his 18x7.5 wheels. Looks really good, and he said that it really helped stop the wheel hop.

are you sure about that? if 235/40's don't fit i don't see how 235/35's would since it's an even lower aspect ratio (even smaller sidewall). 235/45's might work, but that's too much sidewall for my taste.

There are a few people that fit 235/40's on the stock wheels, but they have bulge.
