So I went in to the tire shop today and talked with a guy about my tire setup.. After about an hour of BS back and forth and all kinds of research I decided to go 255/35-18 in the front and 275/35-18 in the rear. I believe he said that will bring my front end down another 1/4 inch and the rear will stay where its at..that means more worries for my cats, and possibly the chin spoiler when I install it..anyways the prices were a little more than I wanted to pay but oh well. I got quoted 922 (minus a 60 dollar rebate) for all 4 tires with lifetime rotation, including road hazards, which their policy states, ..."In the event one or more of your tires fail due to defect, or incurs damage that cannot be repaired, Discount Tire will replace it absolutely FREE. Regardless of the number of miles you put on the tires, you will be covered for the life of the original tread down to 3/32" remaining, or 3 years from the date of purchase."

Thats also including mounting and balancing....You guys think I am getting ass raped or is that a decent price? I believe they are BFGoodrich g-Force Sport

First of all I am no tire expert so I will be the first to admit I don't know what I'm talking about so much when it comes to that...Second, that was a really dumb thing to say just because I am a made member it don't mean ****. It just means I posted more then a lot of people...If you have nothing to say that helps the post then stfu...thank you

I don't know the tire size you are running before the new BFGs but if you run 35 front and 35 rear how is that going to lower the car a 1/4 inch? And BFGs are good tires so you pay for them lol and you really pay for Gforce

The aspect ratio is the same, but the width is different, so sidewall height will be different, albeit slightly.

255mm * .35 * 2 sidewalls= 178.5 mm (total sidewall height)

275mm * .35 * 2 sidewalls= 192.5 mm


Difference in overall height = 192.5 - 178.5 = 14 mm = 0.5511794 in.

So, the front overall wheel height will be ~.55 in shorter than the back.
