I do run 18s, but I don't really think its ideal, as tire size is very limited in race compounds. If you are lowered and run a 275/35-18, you may bottom out under braking. I did and wore the edge of the bottom of my bumper and undertray. Now I'm running 295/40-18 Hoosiers, which look like tank tires, but work and in NT01s, 275/40-18, but Nitto and R888s are the only ones that come in that size.
