I'm debating between 295/18 and 315/18 up front for the next set. Maybe the nitto 555r2 305 would be just right...?

What all have you done to the rear to get those 335/18s to fit? BFH mod? get rid of the bump stops? Did you have to get a new panhard bar to make everything fit? I have the same springs and its not a 2in drop in the front, do you have the same actual 3in drop in the front?

Yeah, it's real low, almost too low. All mods you listed + rolled fender lips and cutting chunks out of the lca's..I need to get aftermarket tubular lca's.

I want this tire size also. Would need to make it fit on an 11" wide wheel with a 1-1.5" drop...

Yeah, I have no complaints about the stance. I rented the fender roller from 69TA (kevin) and did it in one afternoon by myself. about 2.5hrs. No big deal. Just take your time.

i'd like to see them fit without rolling the fenders and getting a panhard bar, 315s+ look so badass from the rear
305s or 315s im so damn torn...
