Stock is around 26.7" tall
In the title you have 235/50/18 and they are 27.25" tall
In the thread body you have 235/60/18 and they are 29.1" tall
So no, they won't fit.

Oops miss type there 50s I know there taller but there also there also wider I used a calculator already but I'm not sure how much width room I have
Stock width is 8.86 but the 235/50s are 9.25 wide I didn't know if some one else has ran them.
Did my post confuse you? BLAME AUTOCORRECT!

Width is not the issue on these. Its the height that will cause rubbing.

OK thanks I figured that 1/2" taller tire wouldn't made the difference
And it was going to be too wide well thanks again

The width isn't an issue. Lots of guys run 245's without issue.

I run 235-50-18s with lowering springs, they fit fine. I rolled the front fender lips and that took car of any rubbing on big bumps. Its also nice having a little more rubber between me and the road.

Awesome thanks what did you use to roll them? I seen the tool Eastwood sells but have never used oneOriginally Posted by 02GTPJeff

I used a hammer a gently folded the fender lip by working my way back and forth. I had to remove the screw at the top of the fender lip holding the inner liner in place. After the lip is folded up the liner is held in place by the lip and the screw is not needed.
My Speedo is abound 1.5 mph slow at 70. Not very noticeable. I usually apply a 5 mph tolerance to my driving speed so to me 1-2 mph is not a big deal.
