Ok so I am set on the wheels I am getting.

http://www.wheelreplicas.com/saleen.html (hyperblack)

I am going to go ahead and get the 18x9's in the front and 18x10's in the rear. I dont know what size tire to get. I was thinking some 265/35/18's in the front and some 285/35/18's in the rear. Should I get 295's in the rear? 35's 40's?.....AHHH, too many choices. What would be the big difference between the two. Or does anyone have a better suggestion? Anyone have something close?

pt 2.
Say i do get the wheels and tires.....I want to do a drop, either the eibach sportlines, or the h&r supersport. Will I have any rub issues? CC Plates? And which drop would be better? Is anyone running a similiar setup?

I know thats a lot of questions but anything you guys can tell me I would appreciate. Im tired of getting answers that lead me no where from tire people. Preciate yalls time and help.

Get 295 35. You won't rub with sportlines. you'll have plenty of room to spare..as a matter of fact- i'm taking the isolators off the front of my sportlines. No spring gets the edge mustang low enough IMO

I have 295 40's on my 10.5. I could go to 315 but don;t mind the 295s at all. THey are sweet looking tires.
