can I run 18s all around?
I want to put 18 x 9.5s in front and 18 x 10.5s in back...will this cause any problems in terms of the computer...speedo, etc??? Thanks for the help!
Not if you use tires that keep the overall diameters close to stock. I think the wheel speed sensors have to see a 9+% difference in front to rear wheel speed for several seconds before they trigger an error code. I have 18x9.5 front w/275/35/18 tires (25.6") and 18x12 rear w345/35/18 rear(27.5")....no problems.
1.9"/25.6" is only a difference of 7.4%...not enough to trigger a code.

I like the 275/35s up front because they approximate the stock 17" diameter and because they provide a little more sidewall to handle the potholes in CA's roads and hiways...
