Default Drag radial sizes

Ok I have some super advans 18x8.5 +40 18x9.5 +45
These are going to be on my car with wider front and over fenders. Car is lowered very little on kw3 coilovers.

What is the largest / best size drag radial to go with ?




Pics before people start asking me what color or something

So the 245-40-18 is the better choice than 265 - 40 -18 ?

Also should I run the 245 on front and back ? Think it would look a little funny

NM **** that 265-40-18. i didnt see that when i first looked. slightly taller then stock, but i think that'll be ok with monster power. fronts can be 225-245 size. thats your call, but i wouldnt run a DR up front. unless you went AWD anywho, getr something like a star spec or kumho XS for the front. decent tire but not gonna break the bank in price.
