x drive standard square with wider tire?

Hi everyone,

I tried a bit of searching around and couldn't find anything too conclusive.

If I have an x-drive with the standard 18s, would a 235/40/18 fit without spacers or even at all?

Thanks for everyone's help.

Probably would. I tried 235/40/18 winter tires on stock wheels with no spacers on a slightly lowered car. Probably would need 3 mm or 5 mm spacers to be on the safe side with summer tires (that are typically a bit wider).

They'll fit fine. That's what I run.

as long as your not dropped, it will fit fine. Spacers would def help if you rubbed at all.

I had 235/40/18 mpss with no rub, same size nitto 01 rubbed a little in front on full turn.
