Help: 275/35 vs 285/35 on 18x10.5 +22

Wheels are going to be TE37 on an F80 currently on EMD lowering springs, but will be moving to coilovers in the near future.

Spec: 18x10.5 +22 Squared
Tire choices: 275/35 or 285/35 and why?
Tire of choice: MPSS or..?

Will I need to modify anything to make it fit? I saw some people run a 5mm spacer in the front.

Would be great if someone had pictures of 275/35 vs 285/35 too!

TIA

Thats going to push out pretty dang far in the back and you might run into fitment issues there as well. I'd probably start with a 275/35 square setup because of that.

As for the front you're going to want to get some camber and you'll probably need at least a 7.5mm spacer.

275/35 would still need a spacer?

Did you ever get this setup installed? I'm about to pull the trigger on the same spec wheels. But I am an F82. Post pics and any mods needed. Thanks!

There is someone running this same set up iirc. 18x10.5 285/35 square with a 3 or 5mm spacer up front. Cant recall exactly.

I think he may have posted in the TE37 thread.
