Been busy lately hashing this out. Picked up 4 brand new forged 18x10's Roush RR03's today, working with Matt94GT Moderator of SN95forums about the terms of a trade for 2 of his used 18x9's for 2 of my 18x10's - then we'd both be running 9/10's.

Those are cast - not forged, and for a different body style than my wheels. I didn't pay close to that much anyways.

Most likely Matt's rubber on the 9's (although he's only running 255's for some reason) and 285/35 NT555's out back.

Thanks Dustin! My thoughts EXACTLY, actually. I thought it was time for a change from chrome, but actually it was a time to change to something not everyone has (actually no one, currently), it's sorta a sleek modern look which i think complements the Aero.

I know most people run wider on the front, but I have 255's on my 18X9 fronts and I've liked them so far. I'm running BFG KDWII's. But you are in the majority for wanting wider on a 9" wide rim! Wheels look sick BTW.

Thanks. Actually a skinny tire appeals to me more, i'm tired of tracking in the front. All i really care about is meats out back. I think it may require 255's to not rub with the spacers required to run these up front anyways.

On my next set of fronts, I am going for a 255/40/18 rather than the 265/35/18 I currently have up front. No need for anything wider up front IMO...

If you like meat out back then I would say that you could easily go wider than a 285 out back especially if you are putting 555's on there considering they tend to run smaller than most other tires. I have some nitto 555's on a 18x9 wheel and I feel like the next tires I get I might even go 295. So considering you have 10 inchers I would personnaly go wider.
