Anyone using 275/40 18's tires on their car? Need pics

[goose34]

I just picked up a set of '00 Cobra R rims (18x9.5), and am looking at tires. I am thinking either 275/35 18 or 275/40 18's. Some of the tires I am considering are cheaper in the 40 series, I am just worried they might be too tall. The overall diameter with a 275/40 is about 1 inch taller than the 35. The 275/35 18's are the same height as the stock 245/45 17's.

Anyone using 275/40 18's and have pics they can post? thanks

There is a user with 275/40/18 and he's happy with them, but the tire is about an inch taller than stock. It'll slow you down, mess up your speedo, and raise the rear end of your car. I have 275/35/18 on a 18x9. I'd recommend that or 285/35/18. Both will look great out back.
