Default FR500's

Well, before I buy these, I want to see them on my car. Could someone please chop them for me? I plan on buying the 18x9 and 18x10s. Would 265/35-18 and 285/35-18 be the right tire sizes? TIA

Thanks man. I am really liking the way that looks. I will be ordering the wheels and tires in the next few days. Springs might come later this summer...depends on how much money I make. So what do you think about the tire sizes?

MT only sells the 265 and 285. Those won't look too small on the wheels will they?

Do you know how the Sumitomos will look? I mean, MT suggests those sizes for the wheels, so you figure they know what they are talking about.

they will look good...and 265-35/18 is perfect for the fronts with sumitomos...which is what i have up front...

with the rear go with 295-35/18..thats what i have (bfg's) especially cus sumi's tend to run small

Ok, thanks. Now, how much more do the BFG's run (i know they are expensive). What would be the best way to get the MT wheels, Sumitomos up front, and BFG's in the back?

Also, since I'm limited on money, do you think it would just be awful if I went ahead and got the 285 Sumitomo's for the back?

BTW: Badfish, your sig is ungodly sweet.
