In your opinion...

[03silverstang]

Thinking about getting 18x9 bullitts and 18x10 Deep Dish for the rear. I need your opinion on the tires.. I dont really have experience with tires. What do you think about this.

"Front 245 40 zr18 and Rear 265 35 zr18 Nexen 3000. UTOG rating Treadwear 360 one of the highest rating / Traction AA highest rating / Temperature A highest rating / Speed rating 186 mph highest rating"

Thanks,

Mike

245/265 is too narrow for 18x9/10

I can't say much for the Nexens, but I can tell you to steer clear of Sumimoto. Take a peek at Tirerack.com or Discount Tire, and read some reviews. I've heard nothing but good things about the Nitto 555s for hook, and BFGoodrich KDW's, not KDWS, are good as well.

what would be a good tire size for those wheels?

I think you could prob fit 265's up front. 245 is stock on the 17x8 factory wheels, and thats an inch narrower than your 18x9's, so putting 245's would be squeezing the tire on, if it even fits. For the rear go 275's or so.

265 min for the front, 285 min for the rear, if you're looking for a decent 'cheap' tire, look into Dunlop SP Sports, I've used them before and had a good feel with them, I don't remember where I bought it from but it was around $110 for a 265/35/18
