For my next set of tires, I'm looking to go for a 255/275 combo rather than the typical 245/275 combo. This means my front tires will be 255/40/18. However, my tire choices in that size are a little bit limited.

So far, I see that the Bridgestone S-03 and BFGoodrich KDW come in that size, and both of those are said to be great tires in the rain and dry. (I don't do much rain driving, but when I do I want decent tires for it.)

Can anyone recommend any other good wet+dry tires that come in a 255/40/18 size, and where I might find a good deal on them?

 

id get the bridgestone s-03 instead...heard nothing but good things about 'em....

 

I have a new set of Dunlop Sp 9000 255/40/18 front tires and 265/35/18s.

Ill sell them to you for $500 bucks for the set.

If you want only the fronts Ill part them out too.

They are really good wet dry tires that are z rated.

 

I definitely appreciate the offer! However, I'm after 275/40/18 in the rear. If you could do a 255/275 combo, I'd be very tempted!

 

try checking www.rpmrevolution.com and see what they can do for you...im probably going to buy a new set of wheels from them...have really good pricing/service....otherwise also check www.tirerack.com

 

Yeah, I usually check TireRack first. They do show some nice tires in the size I'm after (including the S-03), but unfortunately they don't have the BFG KDW in that size (even though the KDW is indeed made in that size.)

 

Are you still selling your DUNLOP SP 9000 in 255/40/18? How much are you willing to sell just the fronts? what condition, and how much tread are left on them? are they asymmetrical? let me know, im highly interested, and in southern california. thanks!
