If you have 18x9' rims all the way around, then you could get some decent rubber for around 250 a tire.

They're going to bend you over and stick in the poopar when it comes to buying tires [:@]

Send the 18" back if you have them and opt for the 17" version instead... look around, you'll be able to find them pretty easy. I have a 265/35-18 tire up front, 18x9 chrome saleen wheel, 295/35-18 in the rear (wish I would have gone 10mm skinnier up front, and 10mm wider in the back ), 18x10 wheel in the rear.

My wheel purchase price qualified as "over $1000" but I am VERY happy with the tires, BFG T/A g-Force KDW... great traction for street tires.
