18" iforged and kumho rolling diameters
I'm looking at the Kumho Ecsta Mx as my choice of "bang for the buck" rubber and I want to verify before ordering that I'm going for the right size. I have 18x9 and 18x10 Iforged on the way, courtesy of Paul at Avalon Racing, and I plan on running 245/40/18 and 275/40/18 respectivly.
I have no experience with these tires, but ppl seem to like them and Tirerack has the front 245's on special for $135/piece. Anyone familiar with the Kumhos that can tell me if I have the right series of tires chosen to keep my overall rolling diamter close enough.
Thanks in advance.

Looks ok to me you have a .9 inch front to rear stagger, tcs/vdc shouldn't complain. I really like my Kumho MX's the only thing I can tell you is should check with your local Discount Tire CO. store on prices and then check to see how much mounting/balancing will cost if you walk in with the tires in hand. I bet they will make it cheaper to just order from them. I have heard some very pricey quotes for 18" mount/balance if the vendor doesn't supply the tires.
