I noticed that the rims that I was gonna buy was 18x7.0. Is it bad? Cuz most rims were 18x7.5. Which is better or it really doesn't matter?
what tire size should I get with 18x7.0? 225/40/18 just like 18x7.5?
I was thinking about getting Nitto NT555 or Toyos Proxes 4 or Yokohama Parada Spec-2, but what if the size is not available?
Please tell me if I need other size than 225/40/18 and what tires have that size (Nittos, Toyos, Yokohamas, etc)
Also, anyone knows where I can get these rims? or anybody has good hook ups?
Motegi FF7 Gunmetal 18" for good price and with tire package.

First off, yes, you can go as wide as 225 with a 7" rim width, but I wouldn't go any wider. As far as what brands offer tires in the size you need, do your own research. Check out tirerack.com or discounttiredirect.com. As far as having a hookup, sorry, don't have one-wish i did though.

Thank you! I was curious about 225 on 7.0 wide rims cuz tirerack gives me this warning that it would be too wide for 7.0 rims. But if it is fine, then I will go with 225/45/18 or 225/40/18 with 18x7.0 rims.
