How wide of a tire can I run up front on a 18x7 ?

[1984 t-type]

Right now I have a 215/40/18 and it's just too small for my liking, I'm wanting to go wider if possible and I deff need a bit taller of a sidewall. Rear is a 275/40/18 and I'm looking for something to compliment that height wise. Thanks

turn your wheels in all the way, and measure the clearance to the frame and to the fender, then turn it all the way out
and measure the same, THAT will tell you how much you can fit in there.

Will give that a shot when I get home from work. How do I equate those measurements into a tire size ?

Go to tirerack.com and find a tire in a size you want and then go to the spec of that tire.

What kinda wheels are you running? Got any pictures? 245/50/18 or 235/45/18 should be about right...

NICE WHEELS!!!! If you had 9.5 on back and 8 on front, 275/45/18 would have be nice on front and 275/50/18 on back...
245/50/18 or 235/45/18 should be about right...
