The tires came with the wheels...so far i am not liking them very much.

Toyo T1-S.

18x9 (f) - 245/45/18
18x10.5 (r) - 275/45/18

They seem a little skinny, wanna go a little bigger in both the front and the rear.

Classic wheels, can't go wrong with those.

I saw an M3 with gun metal GT3's yesterday and it looked sweet.

Looks great, but are you sure the rears are 10.5"? They look a bit smaller.

Looks great. Really like your setup.

I was thinking about going with a similar setup (except 9.5 in front) but with 40 series profile tires instead of 45, to keep the speedometer reading as close as possible to stock.

-What are the offsets on those GT3s?

Good to know you can move 'em....It's between the gt-3's and the Nismo's...the one thing about the gt-3, as already mentioned, is keeping all those rivets clean, the way they should be. I don't know if I'm **** enough. They are my favorite wheels though! No doubt, especially with the Brembos behind them. Also, I'd keep your exact setup, 18's with 245/275 tires. Very nice!!
