Tire combo - selections
Hey fellow members, I have my new tires and rims on order. The wheels are the Grand sport 2010 replicas and will be 18 - 9.5"w & 19 - 10"w. Going with Nittos for the rubber -The rear tire size will be 285/35/19 and the front because of the tire dealer mistake mistake can be 255/40/18 or 275/35/18. I believe either will be ok regarding suggested size combos, but does anybody have prefrences or experience with either of the two front options? good or bad. TC/AH issues? I will post pics when mounted.
Thanks for your help!

two possible size choices for front tires
Hey bacnblk, thanks for your comments, I am looking forward to filling in the gap with 18/19 wheels. But any one else with direct experience with 255/40/18 or 275/35/18 for the front? please chime in.

good to know on the 255's how about any one with the 275's - i like these because they are a little wider. Is the overall diameter difference of 1.27 taller than the rear ok? not too much? Thanks
