Ill be getting some AFS 18x9 and 18x10 deep dish rims (black). I just dont know what size tires to get. I just know that I dont want it to look like the tire is barely holding on to the rim. I want the side wall as straight as possible. The other day i saw an escelade with 22's and the tires looked liek they barely fit on there! I hate that look. The sidewall was almost as flat with the tread.

I also dont wanna spend too much. I knwo tires will cost me due to the size, but i wanna keep it as cheap as possible.

Any recomendations on brand and size???

p.s i officially cought the mod bug. I started with springs, i just ordered some tokico hp's, then cc plates, now the rims, and my gears are going in next month. eek, this is gettin pricey

Kumho and Sumitomo are supposed to be relatively inexpensive brands.

Sumitomo, I got my 315's for $120, and my 255's for $90!!

Go with 295's on the back, or if you want a little wider, I think some companies make 305's. Try and get a 35-45 sidewall.
