Tires for spring... ? I've been looking at the wheel/tire combos at AM. I like my wheels but they're only 17" and have some curb rash. I'd like to go to a staggered setup for looks and grip. Anyone ever run Sumitomos? I like the matte black bullits 18X9f/18X10r with 255/45R18f w/ 275/40R18r. Suggestions welcome!

What is the life you're wanting from the tires? I like my hankook v12s, but they only have approx 25k of life. The extra traction is worth it to me. Call hypermotive before you go AM though, gotta support the local guy lol, he buys expensive shoes.

25k would last me 4-5yrs. It's a daily driver but I only live a couple miles from work. I guess I'll be making some trips, but still not 10k+ a year. I am on a pretty tight budget. Saving for spring rubber can start now though. So many parts... so little money.
