i think the 40 series tires should work. it will be close, but it should be ok. as for that spring/strut combo i give it

i would definitely recommend doing the springs and struts at the same time.

k....how much do u think the spring/strut combo will cost....cus were talkin premium stuff right?

First do the lowering, and then work that for a while (a couple of weeks) and then get the wheels. I suggest the lowering, cus' you want eveything to settle, and know its working as it was intended...As far as tires 225/40/18 will work...but why go 215/35/18 when 215/45-18 will work as well....

so....what size tires should i get the 40 series or the 45???
