do you have plans to drop your car and how low? i personally think 40 series is too thick for 18s. i just hate mine. i wouldnt be able to drop my car very low because of them(i have 215-40-18). i have neuspeed sports and have about a .5" fender gap, if i went with race my car probably would still look high. for this reason i would go with 215-35-18 and nothing else. 225-35-18 would be perfect but i'm afraid i'm going to rub. 225-40-18 is way too thick for 18s imo.
oh it also depends on if your getting a kit or not. i think my setup would be nice if i had a kit but i have no plans on getting one so i think its crap...
