I use 315/30/18 rears and 295/30/18 fronts on 18x10.5 and 9.5 wheels. Looking for more wheel.

Some pic's of my set-up finally.

Mich PSS's, 275/35-19, and 325/30-19 on 9.5" and 12" ForgeLine ZX3R.

constructive criticism? Front tire sidewall is a little to tall. And you need a drop! Other than that, sweet setup

Sorry, wrong tire size for the front. It's 275/35-19. So the OD is 26.6. I wanted to run the same set-up you have. But couldn't get these rims in a 20" diameter size. So I got the 19's instead. I wanted the tire OD to be close to stock with these rims.
