That's what I run, 275/35-18 and 285/40-18. I have no problems with them at all. Just a tad road noise with the top down and radio off, but that problem's easily solved. I've only got about 2000 miles on them. They hold extremely well.

I'm assuming you're talking about KDW-2 tires?
8Vette7's tires were probably not mismatched... I had these and they are very noisy. It's because of the very aggressive tread pattern. The noise got bad after about 10K miles. Nothin but michelins for me now.
On the plus side; they look awesome

Thank you for the insight. I hope KDW-2 will service my needs, I get plenty of road noise from the run flats I currently have. For anyone shopping for TPMS I found what I think is a good deal from speedy car parts. 57.19 ea. Hope to report on the tires and TPMS in time. Thanks again for your experiences on this topic.
