96snake- I see you are from Decatur. Do you go to many mustang shows in the area?

I would go with the 295/35/18 Kumho Ecsta MX instead. Still priced very competitively. Much wider and a better tire in dry and wet conditions. I had the 285/35/18 Sumitomos on the 18x9 Saleen fakes when they were first released. The 285/35/18s were kinda small on the 18x9's.

Not trying to burst your bubble but instead save you from disappointment.

He is correct I have the 285's on my 18x10's only because it was easier to have them already mounted and balanced (through mustangtunning.com) free and just bolt them on. My next set will be 315's....
EDIT: here a pic of them on (to narrow for my taste but was the easiest way for me at the time of purchase so no regrets on my part)

Yea I remember reading somewhere a while ago that there were no 195 Summitomos

I think I might have to go with the Kumhos. How much are the MX's?
