Tire size for R113s?
I'm looking at a R56 MCS and it has R113s. The tires are 215/35/18, but they look a little skinny IMO. Can the R56 run a wider tire on this wheel? I'd be lowering it a fair amount as well.

I'm running 225/35-18 on R53, but there's folks running 235/40 on R56 on this thread. Might want to PM them for advice.Thread:https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...post-pics.html

Did a bit more searching and I think I've found what I'm looking for. 215/40-18 seems ideal for 18x7 wheels.
