So found the rims I want. 18x9 front 18x10 rear black saleens. So I found a few websites that have packages, they mostly come with 265-35-18s on the front and 28535-18s on the rear. They have them in the Nitto 555G2 which seems like a decent tire. I don't go to the track anymore and not too much street racing. I live in Montana and I want to drive more in the mountains and not crap myself when it rains sliding all over the place. I have Mickey Thompson drag radials on the back now and they get scary in the rain. So my questions is. Who makes a good tire in a bigger package. I was thinking 275-40-18s in the front and 305 or 315 35 18s in the rear. Don't want some ghetto crap but not want a autocross or straight drag tire either. Any input would be appreciated. I thought I had this all figured out until I found out they don't make the G2 in a bigger tire.

Toyo proxes in the rear most run 315/30 or 305/35. You want your sidewall height to match as much as possible front and back

I went 275/40 up front Toyo T1 sports and 305/35 r888 in rear
