    Best DR's for 18x10???

    Hey everyone, im in the market for wheels and on the rear I am going with 18x10's. I was wondering what all sizes I can run with them and what would be a good tire for 700+ at the rear wheels. Thanks

    I doubt id take it to the strip, but it has mt 17x9 on the rear now and of course does not hook. Im hoping the 10in will help, I know I have to buy the irs low profile bolts and possibly spacers.

    Was thinking about pushing my car up around your power next year. Just curious about when you actually hook up with the Mickeys? Will it still spin them from like a 2nd gear roll?

    My brother has gone a 1.39 60' and 10.32 with the MT 305/35/18 on a 18x10.
    If traction is your only concern, that will be your best tire choice.

    Horrid tires, I had to get rid of them, no sidewall at all at 25.5" height

    Went with a 315 40 18 Nitto NT05R.... they feel like they are going to hook hard on the street, can't wait to get them on and try them out

    So far I have only drove the car back from ohio but the 17x9's dont help and it deff spins second gear roll. I found the wheels, need to save a few hundred more and I can get them

    Why not 17x10.5's? I paid like 500 shipped for four of them. Only 24 lbs a piece.

    These cars look better on the 18s and better tire choices.
