probably going to need an inch spacer back there... could get away with a 24mm and maybe a 15mm... but at least probably a 24mm

May want to reconsider the tire sizes for those wheels. The sizes you list are std 18s but for 7.5 and 9.0 wheels. You could be stretching a 225/40 on an 8.5. Might want to consider going with a 245/40. The 265/35 will work with a 10 but may look odd. Most forum members recommend a 285/30 but that cuts down on your manufacturer options and adds about $100 per tire over a 265/35. I went with a 275/35 on a 10 and it looks fine.

My new tires / wheels go on tomorrow. New pics coming soon. :dance:
