What size rubber should I be runnin with my Racing Hart CR's 18 x 9 and 18 x 10 rims? The rims are in transit so I'll order the rubber and have them already to mount. Manufacturer would be great to!

245x40 in the front 295x35 in the back =) . i have 275's on the back ony my car and they STILL look too thin. i like want my tires to look like viper tires =). you will probably have to cut or roll the fenders but who cares =). if u don't want any issues with rubbing go with the 275. with 10 inch rims i suggest u go with the 295 though. if u get 275 the will look like it's curved in too much.

Have you got any pics?

And with the 275's you've had no tire rub issues? Are you happy with the brand your runnin?

downtown i'm very happy with the brand i'm running. btw they are toyo proxies t1-s tires. 275's are no problem not for me at least. i have a sc300 though. i believe the gs400 can fit 275 without rubbing issues too.

Thanks for the input. I'll be runnin em on a GS400 so 275's on the rear it is unless someone with a GS tells me different!

On the front ,18x8.5 i'm runnin 235/40 and on the rear 18x9.5 i'm runnin 265/35. I beleive most here are runnin the bigger size tires than i am , 245/40 fr and 275/? on the rear. Do a search for 18 inch tire options and you will find the right size.

If you want pics. Search for Volk Le-37T's and you will find my black GS. But i think i'll be runnin the slightly bigger size when my tires wear out. Bigger tires should give me a little more comfort.

I have Bridgestone so-3's and love em. Go to the tirerack.com . They will even recommend you a size for your rims. Just another option.

Just saw your pics and what a difference a set of nice quality rims can make compared to those 16's which I'm sure your using for winter rims now. You said your going to run a larger tire for more comfort. Are you just changing from a low profile or what?

245/40 and 275/35 18 are the best sizes to run. They have the correct OD and will not rub.

Downtown - I live in South Mississippi so i don't have to worry about having winter tires. Besides, the stock rims won't fit the brake kit i have coming. I beleive i will be going to a slightly bigger profile. The sizes recommended by Brandon is what i'll be going with. It'll give me another inch to absorb bumps.

Brandon - I should a good customer discount, i have brought 4 sets of tires from you guys this year,lol. Just kidding. I'm going to order the wax for my wheels from you guys when i have time.
