someone pull me in right direction here with tire sizes, 18's are whole new world to me. been with 17x9J's for too long and now i gotta re-learn tire sizes.

18x9.5 and 18x10.

245/40/18 and 275/35/18
OR
235/40/18 and 265/35/18
OR
225/40/18 and 245/40/18

??????

I'd like to have as much tire as possible, but 275/35/18's seem to be almost impossible to find around where I'm at.

and just because...

How low are you trying to be? I run 225 40 and 265 35 and honestly I find myself wishing I had less tire all the time. Don't get me wrong, they ride beautifully, but if you're very low at all, they can hit the frame rails up front and the wheel arches in the back.

I basically don't want it to be any lower then what I am right now and willing to raise the car up a bit if needed be.

Mad-Ass 235/40 and 265/30 is a nice setup. The stance is nice and the ride is comfy. Took a ride in a local guys car with this setup and would recommend it if you want a beefier setup. Granted the guys car was dropped nicely but was not eating the floor.

FYI, if you order Federal 595's know that the tire size is a bit larger than what is marked on the tire. FYI, my buddy order the Feds in the tire size mentioned above in a 18x9.5 and 18x11 rims and had almost no stretch......

265/30/18? That'll be 1/2 inch shorter then of 235/40!
I'm going to assume you meant 265/35/18

ITR lips are weird. some fit navan, and some are too short, like ezza's:




jspec sells some that seem to fit fine.

i second this. i ran this setup on my z and it felt very nice. but i think 225/40 and 255/35 seem like they would be a bit better for an s-chassis.

I want to run wider tires in front so that I can actually use my BBK's. and hell, I can spin 255's all day with my stock KA...just imagine with 350+whp...
