What Tires Are Best for my 07 AWD IS 250
Hello Guys,
My name is Dami and I live in Nigeria. I drive an AWD IS 250. I recently bought 18x8 to replace my stock 17's. My 18x8 rims are brand new black Touren Matt Black wheels. 40mm offset. While I will be running a non-staggered set up, will 235/40/18 tires all round bulge out of the arches? I don't want it to have a silly 4x4 SUV look but which tires are my best?
Second, when I make sharp u turns, the front wheels jerk like they will pull out. Is that Normal?
Lastly, there seems to be a squeaky noise from the back roof. Does this happen to anyone?
And why does my car say Approx Miles is 235mi on a full tank!
SOMEBODY HELP!!!!!!

Tires: I cannot recommend tire dimensions since I run stock, but you can pick a good brand of tire here: http://www.tirerack.com/tires/review...surveyComments
U-turns: my car has never done that.
Squeak: never heard a squeak from there. Maybe you can get some moleskin, bumpers or foam to help keep the pieces from rubbing.
Range: My gas is one hash mark below Full and my range is 295. My Average gas mileage is 23.1 mpg
