Well i decided not to go with 20's and to get a set of 18x9 on front and 18x10 saleen wheels. Now i need to know a tire size that would go on there without without rubbing. I was looking at the 275/35/18 on front and then the 295/35/18 on the back. Does this sound like a good set up or do you guys suggest something different. I have a 2inch drop. Also what brand tires would you suggest. Thanks for all the responses.

I've got Falken Ziex 512's on my car and I really like them. They are a very good street tire that grips good both in the corners and at the strip. The tire sizes you have in mind sound right on the money. They shouldn't rub. Although I don't know if they make the Falkens in that size. The Kumho's are ok at best.

Don't go that wide in the front. Get some 255 or 265/35/18's
