Need Some Tire Size Suggestions
New wheels are going on for the '07 show season (I'm keeping my Emotions for daily use though).
The new wheels are a 19x9 +24, 19x10 +23.
My current sizes are 18x8.5 +20, 18x9.5 +12, with 245/40/18, 275/35/18 - I cannot drop the rear of my car anymore (it's maxed) and I like how it sits right now, though I don't mind bringing the rear back up a tad if need be. My rears fenders are rolled and I run -2 camber out back, so rubbing is not going to be an issue. I don't want a stretched look at all, and I don't want to have "tuck" either - just a nice, even stance that looks like it belongs.
So, what tires should I do for front and rear of the new setup guys?
I want as aggressive a look as possible, so thinking of the 255/35 and 285/30 - also gives me some different tire options since a few tires come in these sizes. Or, step it up to a 265 up front, 295 out back? If so, which sidewall. Yes I know 295 is ALOT of tire for the rear of an NA car, but again, it's mainly just for show use so that's not a tremendous concern for me.
TIA! Trying to get this sorted asap so I can order these things up and be ready for spring
