I know I just figured the stock size are so cheap that he could get the 18's for a decent price too.

Ok so will I have any problems running 275x35x18 all the way around my car? I will be using the stock bullitt suspension as well so shock/struts/springs
I am going to be getting the Eagle F1 GS-D3. I was going to get the 265s but the 275s are a lot cheaper. So what is everyone's opinion?
