Default What Are Good 275/35ZR18 Tires?!?!

I just bought 18s Cragar SS wheels, now I need tires. I'm probably going to run 275s all around although I was thinking about going 245 or 255 in front. Are there any good tires that you guys can recommend?

Thumbs up

I bought the same kind of wheels and am running Nitto NT555 275 out back and 255 in front. I'm very satisfied w/Nittos, great performance and I got a good deal. But If you can get a good deal on Goodyear F1 G3, get those.

Bridgestone Potenza S0-3 Pole Position is a good tire. Great traction, but they get a little noisey as they wear. I also liked the Kumho Ecsta MX tire I had on my last Z28. They didn't wear as fast as the S0-3s and stayed quiet as they wore, plus the stick was comparable. They're also a lot less expensive than other performance tires. And then there's the Goodyear Eagle GS-D3s. They were the best tire I've used so far. Quiet, excellent wear rate, superior traction (especially in the rain) and they look good doing it. All of these tires suck in the snow, however.

Michelin Pilot Sports, BFG KD'2s . . .

I have Kuhmo MX's right now, and for the money they are good tires, but they are heavy and noisey.
