Default What do you guys think?

I am getting a set of ROH RTs and either KDW2s or GSD3s but am not sure what I should get for sizes. Originally I was going to get x2 front 18x9s with 265/35s and x2 rear 18x10s with 295/35s. Now I'm wondering if i should just get 4 of the same size so I can rotate my tires. What would you guys suggest 18x9s or 18x10s and what size tire to go with it? If I get the 10s all the way around are 285s too big for the front tires? Any help would be appreciated.

thanks

I put on 90-120 miles a day 80% highway if that helps. I figured rotating would help the longevity of the tires for me.

i think you should run wider tires in the rear, i know you want to be able to rotate, but the wide tires in the rear look so good from behind. i bought the same wheels all the way around then in ten months i bought wider in the rear, i should of done it the first time, and saved myself the money. good luck on deciding
