Default Tire size help

Whats up guys.... so i'm finally getting some wheels for my car. i've decided to go with a staggered fitment of 8.5 front and 9.5 rear 18" wheels so i know about the issues with the fenders.. but what i need help with is deciding what size tire to go with... i'd like something with some meat on it but not too much...
thank for the help in advanced guys pics would help if you got the same wheel size and what are you wrapping them with?

Default RE: Tire size help

you have to maintain the same circumference of tire when you upgrade tires - so that you have the same revolutions per mile IE - your speed won't get all screwed up from having the wrong size tires - there is also talk of it being bad for the quattro system.

Plug in your stock and new size in this link, just make sure he speed will be fairly close when traveling at 65
