Sneak Peek Of New Setup

I always wanted 18" replicas and got my hands on some as soon as they were available. I always really wanted 18X9/10.5 replicas but no one made them. Kept checking AFS and sure enough, they started making them. I ordered them a few months ago and have been waiting patiently for my current tires to wear down. I'm at 7-8/32nds of tread now so I've started reading up on tires. Have narrowed it down to Toyo R888 and Michelin PS2s (265-35-18 and 315-30-18).

I would have gone with 18's if I didn't have a set of the 17's all around already. When they started making them again, I picked up a set of the 17x10.5's to replace my rear 17x9's. The 18's look so good and you have a lot more tire option nowadays. I like the tire sizes you selected. Do they make a 315/35/18?
