What type and size tires are you guys running? Any specific brand I should go with?

When I had 18's I was rollin' Yoko Parada 215/35 18's. Fit pretty nice!

As long as you run 215/35/18's you'll be ok. As far as brand goes. I get the cheapest ones I can find since I know I'll be going threw them in a few months. 18's aren't for performance. They're for looks. If you want to go fast get another set of smaller wheels with better tires. I have my 18's and another set.

I'm surprised ***** has asked these questions yet but here goes..

1. what is the offset of your 18"s
2. what brand tires were you using with them (assuming that one 215 brand tire is wider than another 215 brand tire )

:confused:

Oh wait, this is the SE-R forum. :o :D

Thanks guys for the reply. The reason I'm asking because I bought some rims outside the US, so they didn't have tires when I brought them back. I wanted to make sure I wouldn't rub. As for performance I have my 15' panasports for fun:)

You will probably see better performance with 18" rims than 15' Panasports. ;)

I thought this was a thread about people who run -really slow- 1/4 mile times.
:D

No it's a thread about people who like to turn heads by driving by. Even with my 18's I've still managed to break deep into 14's. That's really slow? :D
