I have been looking at this too because I just bought these as well. So far I have come up with 265x35x18 for the fronts (also have seen 275x35's) and 295x35x18 for the rears. Anyone else back me up on this?

No hijack intended GreyGoose but you may want to know as well and better than starting a new thread I may get more answers here. What are you guys with the 18's doing for a spare?

EDIT: IF I USED THE SEARCH I WOULD FIND WHAT I WANTED TOO.

I just got mine on with 265/35/18 and 295/35/18. It looks great.
I would not got any bigger on the front, but you could go bigger on the back. 315s.

You may want to consider that the lip of the tire does not stick out much, if at all, so curb rash is a possibility. So careful.

i have done more research and nitto now sells a 305/35/18 in the 555rII style. tread wear is still 100 and they are a little pricey but seem to be nice.

100 treadwear Those things will die quickly.

Ditto on the 265/35 and 295/35. I have Yokohama AVS Sport tires on my deep dishes, they look awesome.
