I just did the calculation on that... So your running a taller tire up front??

245/55/18 = 28.6x9.6x18

255/55/18 = 27x10x18

Re: 67-72 Static Drops with 18's all the way around...

The point of this thread is that Im looking for a good tire combo for 18" with a 4/6 drop... I do NOT want to go any less than 55 series, as I will be daily driving and want the ride... I will be running 18x8 up front and 18x9.5 out back... The sizes that Ive come up with so far are this

Front - 225/55/18 (27.8" x 9.2")
Rear - 255/55/18 (29.2"x10.6")

I found them in the Yokohama line... Avid ENVigor...

This is my first experience with these trucks and I know that stance and tire/wheel combo are everything. How does this look to you guys??
