Are you looking to enhance the performance and appearance of your vehicle? Performance Plus Tire has got you covered! We offer a wide range of 18x8 inch custom wheels and rims to take your ride to the next level. Whether you're a car enthusiast or simply want to give your vehicle a sleek upgrade, our 18x8 inch wheels are the perfect choice. With their unique size and design, they provide a distinctive look that is sure to turn heads wherever you go.
18x8 wheels are a popular upgrade for modern sedans, luxury crossovers, and performance-oriented daily drivers. This size delivers a clean, proportional look while supporting a wide range of tire options, from sporty low-profiles to comfort-focused touring tires. It’s often chosen for OEM replacements on high-trim models and as an aftermarket step-up for improved handling and style.
The 18x8 platform offers a strong balance of ride quality, steering precision, and curb appeal. Enthusiasts appreciate its compatibility with both factory tire diameters and plus-sizing for a more aggressive appearance. Neighboring widths like 18x7.5, 18x8.5, and 18x9 provide flexibility for staggered or square setups depending on the build’s goals.
Common bolt circles for 18x8 include 5x112 (Mercedes-Benz, Audi, VW, and other European models), 5x114.3 (very common on sedans, coupes, and crossovers from Toyota, Honda, Ford, and more), 5x120 (BMW, Chevy performance sedans, select SUVs), and 5x108 (Volvo, Jaguar, Ford Europe). Matching offset, hub bore, and brake clearance ensures a proper fit without vibration or rubbing.
Switching to 18x8 can slightly firm up the ride if paired with lower-profile tires, but most drivers find the change minor. The improved handling and responsiveness often outweigh the small decrease in comfort.
Common fits range from 225/45R18 for sporty sedans to 255/55R18 for SUVs. The ideal size depends on your vehicle’s factory specs, wheel offset, and intended use. We can recommend a perfect match once we have your vehicle details.
Absolutely. Many drivers use 18x8 for winter setups because it allows a good balance of tire sidewall height and width, helping maintain traction in snow and slush while still clearing modern brake packages.
Only if your overall tire diameter changes significantly from stock. Sticking close to the factory diameter will keep your speedometer accurate and maintain proper transmission shifting behavior.
