Default Need some help chosing the right tires for HP

Well, I'm putting down more power, got new rims, and need to find something stickier than what I've been running on. The rims are 18x9 +34 18x9.5 +42, and I'm putting down in the area of 500. I didn't renew with toyo because I was afraid RA1s wouldn't treat me as well as some of the other options, like the RE01R or some PZero Neros. Any advice on sizing is appreciated as well, I'm running modified stock fenders. Thanks!

Those are pretty low offsets for those sized wheels, Unless we know how much fender room you have added it's very hard to make recommendations. What size rubber are you currently running? I'd go with RE01's personally, the Falken 615's are supposed to be really grippy for the price.

Well, I've run these offsets before with my RGs back in the day, I just can't for the life of me remember what sizes I was running... It's been a long while... When I did my fenders, I gained about an inch or so all around. They can't be huge, because despite the mods it's not a true widebody, so camber is an issue.
