What tires to get for my new rims?? Hey guys I know someone prolly posted awhile for this but I'm just gonna ask
I'm stationed in Germany right now, but that isn't going to keep me from doing stuff to the car. I'm getting 18x9.5 Chrome C5 rims for the T/A (should be there next Friday) and I need to know what tires to get for the thing so my dad can go get em for me when I order the tires and get them put on hassle free... I dont care how much they cost I want really good quality and something that will help make the rims look alot better
Any suggestions would help alot

A 275/35/18 should work nicely on an 18x9.5" wheel. You can search Discount Tire or Tirerack for different brands or styles of tires that meet your performance/price targets.

Hey man, where are you located? I'm in Kaiserslautern. Do you know about FbodyEurope? Our website is www.fbodyeurope.org. We'd love to have an extra member.
Btw, I just got the new Avon Tech M500 tires, and they are badass! Really sticky, even in the rain!

I just ordered a set of 275/35/18 Nitto 555 extreme performance tires. Jay at Discount Tire Direct had recomended them over the other tire I was looking at, the Yokahama AVS ES100.
I came in right under $800 for all four shipped to my door. To bad I'm still waiting on the rims to get here.....
