You will be fine with those sizes.The only problem is finding a 315/35/18 in that size.

I would do 265/35/R18 in front and 295/35/R18 or 305/35/R18 in back.

thanks for the quick response guys should i put 265 on the front instead of 275 because they will rub?

I have the 255/35/R18 Nitto 555's in front and 285/35/R18 in back with the Nitto DR's...I like them a lot but next time I will get Regular 555's all around and 265's in front and probably 295 or 305's in back...right now the rim sticks out a hair.

After looking at some car pics in the wheel replica website i really like the bullet wheel with the 315 rear tire what is a good front tire size if the back is 315-35r17?
