Which Set of tires?

I'm debating between two different sets of tires for my 18x9.5(F) & 18x11(R) wheels so if anyone can help me out, I'd really appreciate it.

I don't know if I should use 255/40/18 - 295/35/18 (26.0 & 26.1 diameter)

or 285/35/18 -295/35/18 tires (25.9 & 26.1 diameter)

Thanks.

Too much tire for a 9.5" wheel IMO

I agree. It's just a size that a fellow member is running, who also happens to have the exact rim's sizes.

I would prefer to run the 255/40/18 & 295/35/18 although Im wondering if the 40mm difference be an issue?

I would go with the 255/40 front setup for your specs. You will be 1/2" lower than factory based off tire diameter alone, so keep that in mind if you plan on lowering the car.

Yeah, I'm already lowered so I'm gonna see how plays out.
