A) Thanks for calling the forum dumb, I'll keep that in mind when you ask for help.
B) Since I'm a mod I'm going to go ahead and answer this anyways
C) If you're looking for road comfort, get 15's, not 18's.
D) Wider tires are going to follow ruts in the road
E) Taller than stock tires will rub on a lowered car and thow off your speedo.

I am also trying to find the best sizes as I am going with the 18x9 and 18x10 combo as well (with a prokit). I was thinking 255(or 265)/35/18 and 285/35/18.
