front tire size with 285/35/18 rear?
What tire size should i go in front with a 285/35/18 rear? I was thinking a 265 but what sidewall? Also what recommendations of tires do you guys have for front and back? semi sticky durable tire. My Nexen n7000s wore way to quick. thanks

what about a 265/35/18 in front? that would be a 92.75 mm sidewall in front to my 99.75 mm rear with 285/35.

i definitely want a 285 in the back but I want a bigger side wall in the back than in the front. i also want a skinnier tire in the front than the back i was thinking a 265 but idk what side wall to go with.

I run a 285/35/18 out back and either a 265 or 275/35/18 out front. 18x9.5 is what I have. Just depends which size is cheaper at the time. 265's on now. If you want a taller wall out back I would just go with a xxx/40/18 on back. Might be a little harder to find a tire that comes in both of those sizes though.

Imo your over thinking it..factory ws6 run 275-40-17.. they provide plenty of grip... period.
You can run a 295-35-18 easy.. just for you info factory z06 run 295 -35 rears..and a 265 front..
Once you go huge out back you run into cornering understeer.
Do a seach.
