What size tires for 18" wheels

[madman213]

I just ordered a set of 18" bullitt wheels. 2 18x10 and 2 18x9. What size tires do you recommend. I was thinking of getting bigger tires in the rear and smaller in the front so the car will sit agrresively tilting forward. Give me some feedback.

I ordered the same rims as you and I did 265/35 ZR18 for the fronts and 285/35 ZR18 for the rears. This is what was recomended by the dealer who sold the rims to me.

I run G-Force KD's; 295/35 18 Rear 285/35 18 Front
Now keep in mind you will be fine in the rear BUT if you go this size you must have a steering stop installed in the front so you dont rub, one of those fun little features built into a Roush

PS, The KD's are $330.00 a piece and worth every single itsy bitsy cent!!

im running 265/35 up front and 295/25 out back in pirelli pzero rosso's, so far there holding up great, excellent wet traction, great dry traction, and low road noise

I did not order my rims or tires from tirerack. tirerack always recomends smaller tire sizes.

I did order my tires from tire rack, got some Yokohama AVS100 245/40-18 Front and 275/35-18 back. They are holding up excellent, especially for 160 bucks a pop, and grip really well. The only reason they suggest that size is for sidewall stability, but like they said, they have a whole lineup of tires that can take the load. I got these because I didn't want to spend 2 times as much for a tire that is maybe slightly more efficient. If the tires were twice as efficient, no problem, but many times we are buying a tire for the name and tread design....

ditto for me. except my rear is 10.5. 285 is tad bit too small. But since you have 10" rim, I say go with 285
