I currently have a 245/40/18 on 8" wheel in front and a 255/40/18 in rear 9" wheel but i want a little wider set up, as it is the tires are a little thinner then the rims (small running toyos.) i have tired the the 245/40/18 front 275/40/18 rear set up but i didn't like the big sidewall of the rears and i didn't handle well(very pushy feeling.) I Know the speedo will be off a little bit but im not worried about that. I just wonder how it will handle before I drop the money down. Has anyone tried the 255/35/18 to 275/35/18 combo? will it handle better the the other setup?
p.s its a 20 offset if that matters.

I wouldn't run that setup, just get a set of 10 to 10.5 rear wheels. It completely changes the way a 275/40 looks, not to mention they handle better on wider wheels than a 9. If you want to get rid of the push, get 9.5 all around with 275/35 front , and 275/40 rear. Even with the just mentioned setup , you can run a wider rear wheel if you want.

With the proper size wheels, i would highly recomend it. VDC/TCS will love it, there is no caster change by bringing the back end down more than the front. Its a great street setup, good track too.
