Alright, I've searched the forum and I hope i'm not repeating a thread. What is the fattest, most functional and visually effective tire/wheel setup? I'm gonna go with 18x9s up front and deep dish 18x10s in the back. Whats the best STREET setup for these wheels? I want something thats fat and looks intimidating too.

Get some Nitto 555R's in the back! They'll be good for Street and Track.

Here in the UK, EVO performance car magazine have just completed their 2007 performance tire shootout and the Goodyear Eagle F1 came top but in 2nd was the Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta which was a huge surprise to everyone.

I have BFG KDW2's. I love the traction and they look awesome! I have them on a set of CCW sp500s

Definitely the most agressive looking street tire out there. Awesome traction on dry or wet pavement.
