Tires for 18x11 wheels I've got CCW 505A in 18x11 and 18x10 for my 02 TA. I've been using Goodyear GS-D3 tires in 295-35-18 and 285-35-18
The GS-D3s were rumored to run wider thus the above sizes fit very well. The 285s were perfect up front and the 295s out back were good but no room for a narrower tire.
Doesn't look like Goodyear makes the GS-D3 in my sizes anymore. Does anyone have any recommendations?
I came across the following as possible
Continental Extreme Contact DWS in 295-35-18 and 285-35-18
Seems like the perfect tire, but not sure if they run "wide" like the GS-D3s

BF Goodrich G-Force KDW in 295-35-18 and 275-35-18
Not sure if I am stretching the fronts or back

BF Goodrich G-Force Rival in 315-30-18 and 275-35-18
Rear is a great size, but might be stretching the front. However, doesn't seem to be a tire I can use comfortably for 9 months as it seems it is autoX that works on the street.

I'm not looking to spend 2k on a set of tires for 2-3k miles a year. I would like to keep under $1250...worst case I see 275-35-18 GS-D3s on EBay and really only my fronts need to be replaced
