Best tires for 18x7.5's

I just ordered Chrome Konig Prophets 18x7.5. What would the best tire be i want a decent ride and i don't want any problems turning or anything. I am thinking about 225/40/18. Please give me your input. Also anyone have any 18 inch tires forsale or know where i can get a set cheap. I will appreciate your help.

will a 215 fit on a 7.5 rim?

i have 225/40/18 on my car and i don't have any problems. are you planning on lowering your car? if so how much, cause that will effect what size tire you can fit without rubbing. and yes a 215 will fit fine on a 7.5 wheel
