First time buying tires 18x9.5 +25 and 18x10.5 +32

[feitu232]

Hello!

I recently purchased a set of wheels in the specs 18x9.5 +25 and 18x10.5 +32 for my Supra 2.0

The car is dropped .6~ in the front and rear

Can someone advise me which tire size to buy?

Thank you!!

Stay with stock size tires. 2.0 doesn't need wider. And the extra half inch of wheel gives you a little bit of stretch which will help avoid rubbing since you're lowered.

what are you dropped on? What alignment are you planning on running?

OK so, tires aren't cheap. Before I offer any advice, what kind of driving do you do? 80% commute to work/school, 20% track weekends. Do you drive like a maniac or just cruise around town?

Honestly I'm not saying you couldn't maybe got a hair skinnier or wider with what is on this, however, it seems very accurate. Not sure I'd run the max or min but one of the 2 suggested sizes in the middle section (more toward wider side personally).

Ill do pulls here and there lol but the car is mainly used to cruise around with friends, gym and car shows. I don't track it

I like the Yokohama ADVAN Apex V601. Set of 4 is less than $900.
If you stick with the stock size, you'll have a slight stretched look.
They ride similar to the stock Michelins and stick as well in turns. I'd say easily 90% of the performance of the Michelin Pilots for $250-$500 less.

If you want a nicer ride quality, quieter ride, really nice around the town tire that will deliver 85% of the stick of the OEM Michelin... The Bridgestone Potenza Sports are a great tire and Tire Rack has a close-out price of less then $600 for the set.

I've run both these tires. I drive like a maniac around town, but my old man self does like to just quietly drive sometimes. Hope this was helpful.
