Don't know anything about them, but i'm pretty sure you'd need a wider tire to accomodate a 9.5 inch wheel. I have OEM 18x7.5 and the size is 245/45/18. So you would probaly need somewhere in the 260 range...don't quote me on that number, all i'm saying is that you'll need a wider tire.

I am running 9090 and use the tires in the summer months (April-November). They are great in the rain, excellent in the dry although I heard SO2/3 are owning in the dry.

I am thinking about replacing them with SP Sport Maxx. The wear has been great too, 50k miles and still about 6/32nds.

I would go with a 255/40/18 so your wheels dont look like big baloons

I had a set on my old supra turbo. They're good tires, grip well and were good in the rain. They wore out a bit quick though! I guess over 300whp will do that.
