Getting 18" Toxxins on my car tomorrow. What tire size should I get though?
Im getting 18" Toxxins on my car tomorrow and Im curious as to what tire size you guys recommend. Also, Im new to alot of this and I've seen that Toyo Tires seem very popular. What is the difference between tires there gonna put on my car and Toyo Tires? What makes them so much better, if anything?! Thanks for anyone who actually helps rather than flaming.

I was thinking about the 215/40/18 Yokohama Parada Spec 2's, because I live in Chicago and we get alot of rain and have alot of railroad tracks and bumpy roads here. What do you guys think?

depends on how and where you drive i guess... most people get 215-35-18. this is slightly smaller then stock. i went with 215-40-18. mainly because i drive pretty crazy and the roads are pretty badd here and i wanted more protection for my rims... i also wanted less actual miles by going with a bigger wheel then stock. 215-35 is kinda small for me and 215-40 was a lil too big, i think 225-35 would have been perfect but i was afraid it was going to rub since i have neuspeed sports. oh and also if you decide to go with 215-40 or 225-40 your very limited to the choice of tires cause only a few companies make them, you have much more options with 215-35
