its more about the way i want the 275/35/18 to sit on the rim. the 8.5 rollers that i have now are a 8" wide wheel using 255. corvettes use a 275 on a 9.5" rim.

Time to find some tires. 275/30/18 and 315/30/18 sizes. i wish they made the kdw on the rear but they dont. looks like toyo, kumho and falkens are the only real options. Opinion?
