295/30/18 front 305/30/18 rear? Too small? Just like the title says. Would those sidewalls be too small? My cars lowered on BMR springs and will have 10.5" rims all the way around. I'm dead set on Toyo R888's but they don't have a 295/35/18 to match the 305/35/18. So would 30 sidewalls look too small?

i am not too crazy about running 295/30/18
on the front, especially since that is where the majority
of the weight is at.
one bad bump and you will run a chance of ruining your wheel
and our cars sit too low as it is with lowered springs.
your best bet would be to just run 305 30 18's all around
on the front, especially since that is where the majority
of the weight is at.

I'd have to agree with 69TA, with the 305/30/18 you'll
be at 25.20" so you'll only lose about 3/16" of ride height and ground clearance.
Furthermore, the slightly shorter height might be a plus, and give you some needed clearance in the turns with a wide tire up front.

You could always order the rear tires first, get them mounted and try them on the front and see if you are happy with them. You might need to use spacers with a tire that wide up front so that they are not hitting the suspension.
