I have Pirelli's not sure on type
275x40zr18 Front
245x##zr18 Back
They were alreadyon the car when I got it used at 30k milesand I have 45k now and still have plenty of tread left. They were probobly on the car for 5k miles or so before I got it. Good dry traction. OK wet traction, but it's a mustang. Great tread life. They make no noise when peeling out. I don't think I would buy these again because Pirelli's are too expensive.

Steeda ultra lite II with 275 40 18, rims are 18 X9.5, All the way round love them but you will need steering rack limiters so you don't rub at full lock. Oh Ihave falken 451'stoo, like them alot.

How do the 315's work in the back. thats pretty wide for a 10" wide rim...

18x9 up front, 265/35-18
18x10 in back, 295/35-18
BFG g-Force KDW. Like said above, AWESOME dry traction, great wet traction, snow? Oh no, horrible. I've had mine for about a year and they still look like new tread-wise and I have been hard on them.
I wishI would have gone wider out back, 295 is a perfect fit on the 10" wheel, a 315 could be fit. If you're worried about it, go with 305... you DEFINITELY can go wider than 295 though.
