Default Help with tire size

I'm getting ADR M-Sport 18x8.5/9.5

I'd go with 245/40/18 front and 275/40/18 out back, if it were me. It maintains the stock wheel/tire OD.

I think www.TireRack.com and www.DiscountTire.com (or is that www.DiscountTireDirect.com ?) have both been well recommended.

Factory tires are W. I think you'd want to go W or better.

Z rated is good

toyo proxies are good tires, medium price.

nitto 555 are gonna be the cheapest ones Id use.

S03s are popular, supposedly better than toyos but they are heavier, so I donno, toyos are a good bit lighter.

I believe all of those are Z rated I believe.
