tire size ?
 

Quick Question. I eventually plan on getting some black fr500s, 18x9 fron, 18x10 in back. What size tire is the best fit for a 18 x 10 rim?? Im guessing...305/45-18??? Thanks and do you think they would rub an a 1 1/4 inch lowered car?

Heres what I want it to look like...sweet huh :D I want the fr500s so bad!!!

305/45/18's would be way to tall,you need either a 315/35/18,295/35/18,or at least a 285/35/18.You might be able to go with a 40 series but 45 would'nt look right.

I would think 285s would be too skinny and 315s too wide?

I like my 285's and they are not to skinny.If I had to do it over again I would have went with 295/35/18's though.

how wide is your rear rim tho?

Mine are the 18x10 deep dish Black Bullits.

oh cool? do u think with 295s would buldge any...and thanks for the help, and wow is it just me or are your rotors really small?

The rotors look smaller because of the 18's.No 295's would not bulge at all.

get 285/35/18

Can't disagree there,thats what mine are :)

I thought u said u wish you woulda gotten 295??

Yes I did did'nt I :) I just wanted a little wider but my 285's look good to.

how would 295s fit?

295 will not bubble that much if any on a 18x10 , I have them on my 18x9 and it really bubbles out.

I dont think you would have any problems with a 295/35/18 on a 18x10 at all.

They will fit just not bubble out like 315s or 305s.

eh mabey ill wait till teh 17x9 and 17x 10.5 black fr500s come out :)

If I get new wheels it will be 17s dont like to spend alot of money on tires rather spend it elsewhere.

my wheels came with the car :)

My friend has 265/35/18 front with 18x9 295/35/18 rear with 18x10 on his stang! Sits really nice! I like lances setup too!! I dunno which is better, i like lances setup but i might go with my friends setup!! Im sooo confused''

get whatever is cheaper or on sale. 285 295 it wont make a difference. pick what kind of tire you want and see what size it offers.

and it has 500+ rwhp and its betetr than everyone...I know ;)

come on man, tech.

?????? wha?
I was responding to this:

i know i know. i just saw the sticky in the mod motor section and figured they didnt want little wise cracks in the tech sections :)

K ive decided after some long thought to go with the Black Saleens 18x9 in front, and 18x10 in back...now what tire size would be ideal for front and back (i know its reiderating, but i want to be sure)

18x9 - 265/35/18

18x10 - 285/35/18 or 295/35/18

If you went with the 295's I'd say go 275/35/18 on the front,they match up better height wise.

The biggest I could find online in 18's is 305/35/18's by Nitto at discounttiredirect.com,no one else carried even that size.
