    Ok so long story short, im a newbie lol. I go to tiretrack select my car 2009 Lancer ES Sport and select 18" rims as my alternative wheel size I purchased these tires http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires...autoYear=2009&autoModel=Lancer&autoModClar=ES

    My question is will they fit on the following rims, Rota Grids 18x8.5 5x114.3/e44/73
    Link:http://www.wheeldude.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=5873

    I bought those rims so I need tires that will fit those rims, if the ones I purchased will not fit since they are already delivered guess I will have to return them, can you guys link me to performance tires that will fit those rims.

    P.S.

    Can you guys link me to coilovers for my lancer, or direct me towards a website in order to lower my car...

    Thanks guys...

    +1 When I had my 18's, I was on 225/35's. The treadwidth seems ok..maybe a little stretch, but the 50 sidewall would be too big I think. I would go with a 35 or 40 series sidewall. As for the wheel, The +44 offset seems a little large to fit, but I don't know what the newer Lancers can handle.

    Out of curiosity, how much height adjustment is available for the front & rear?
