275/40R18 All Around??
Is anyone out there running 275/40R18's at all 4 corners?? If so do you have any kind of drop? I wanna run those all the way around and also plan on lowering it 2 inches and wanna know if I will have any rubbing issues or any other problems

Don't overlook wheel width and offset here. For 275/40's you need wheels that are at least 9" wide (the GT500 wheels in Sharad's picture are better still at 9.5" wide) and most SN95-offset wheels probably won't work with lowering (those GT500 wheels should have a +45 offset). 275/40's on 10" wide wheels with offset around +42 or+43 should also work, although I don't know how much lowering could be tolerated.

Norm, yeah the GT500 wheels im looking into are 9 inches wide and have a 30mm offset so i think i should be good on that end. thanks for the heads up though. Also with a 30mm offset, just how low do you think i can get?? i dont wanna go with the whole "slammed" look but i wanna get rid of a decent amount of the fender gap
