Soon I will be running 18x9.5 on all corners and I'm looking for input on front tire size. I'm gonna run 305 45 18 drag radial for the rear but want to know what size tires I should use for the front?

Bump?

Nitto Motivo 265/50R18 in front, Nitto NT05R 305/45R18 in back. Never set ABS codes. And you still have dibs I might have them off finally on Saturday.

What wheels are those and what's the offset on them?

Thanks I'm definitely still interested in them. Also did you buy special lug nuts for the 18's or does the OEM work fine?

Gorilla lug nuts. Never tried the stock ones, they might work.

18x9.5 ZR1 replicas, +40mm offset. Fronts fit with some work.
