Just bought a set of Y2K R's 18x9, car is a Sunday cruiser. I was thinking 275/35 all around or a 265/35 & 275/35 or maybe 285/35 front /rear combo what do you think, any insight or opinions will help me.
Thanks

I would do 265's in the front 275's in the rear only because on my cobra with my 00r rep wheels the tires(nitto extremes) would rub on the bumper when i was making a full turn. You could also do 275's all around this way you could evenly rotate the tires.

I like the rotation idea but if you are not aware sometimes depending on the brand and tread pattern of the tires you can see increased tramlining due to the wider front tires sometimes it works out a little better to go with a narrower front to avoid chasing the ruts if you have those where you live. Just a thought and you could definately fit a nice 285 on the back of those and have that beefier look. Just my .02 best of luck in whatever you decide and pics soon or else lol.:beer:
