Default Wat tires should I get

I just got my front's replaced by nissan so they are brand new. I need to replace my back tires there completly shot. I'm choosing between nitto 555's, bf td kd's or kdw's . What do you guys recommend. Also should i stick with the stock 245/45/18 or upgrade too 275/40/18..

thanks in advance

if you're running the stock potenzas in the front, get the same tire or something very similar in specs/tread pattern for the back...

nitto555's might fit this requirement

it's not the worse thing you can do, but it's also not the best... mixing tires in the front and back (with different specs/tread patterns) may result in unpredictable handling... this isn't to say that the car becomes undriveable, it just might not be performing at 100% during the rain or during a hard turn for instance
