Default wheres all the 295/35/18 folks at?

I have been doing my homework on tires lately and have considered going up to 19's because my ideal combo for my car is a 275/35/18 front and 295/35/18 rear and there only seems to be a couple manufactures that can accommodate both sizes.

Right now its looking like I'll go Nitto nt05 if I were to go 18" wheels.

Have you considered the BFG gforce Rivals? They offer those sizes. I have 285/35/18 front/335/30/18 rears in these and think they look great. I have not gotten to try them out yet though.

Called tire rack and was told those were discontinued and the Rival -S doesn't offer anything in a 295.

Falken makes a 295/40/18 but I don't care for the sidewall height.

I will take a look at the mickey thompsons.

I'm running Toyo proxes in that size...didn't seem to be an issue finding them about six months ago when I bought them.

I am running 295 Nitto on the back of my Mustang and they seem to be good tires.
