I wanna get the Steeda ultralite II silver finish(18x9.5)..where's a cheap place to get them and also in the steeda site they say you can run 285's on the front and 295's on the rear. I'm thinking of going 275 35 18 all around. how would that look? thanks for any help on this.
 
You can run 275/35/18 all around. If you don't mind not being able to rotate, i'd put 285/35 rear tho. I think 295/35 is a little tall of a tire to use since it affects the speedometer, but plenty of people use it.. they just don't know exactly how fast they are going unless they are using a speedcal or have a tune.

wouldnt a 295/35/18 be the same height as a 285/35/18? Since the 35 is the sidewall.
No. The sidewall is 35% of 285.. or 35% or 295. People often get confused about this. Look at a 245/45/17 next to a 255/45/17. The 255 is noticably taller, even only if a 1/4 of an inch.
