What Size Tires Do I want?


My rims are 18x9 up front and 18x 10 DD in the back.

295/35/18 for the street I guess. That 10in. rim is made for some WIDE tires like 315/35/18s. The less tire you have on the road the better your gas mileage if you want it for a daily driver, but you still want it to have that good look to it. Possibly go 305/35/18 for a middle compromise

That's exactly the size I have on 18x9 fronts and 18x10 backs. They look perfect and not oversized/undersized for the rims. I would think 305's would cause the the sidewalls to bow out a little?

yep im at 18x9 and 18x10.5 and my tires are 255 and 285 front and rear. I think it looks perfect, any bigger and the tires would be sticking out too much for my liking.

You will find many wheels that are 18"x10.5".

I have purchased two sets of them from Hardcore Mustangs. You will find some at American Muscle and try TomzWheels.com as well.
