Pretty much stuck on two options. Here are my choices:

1) F: 18x8.5 w/ 245s; R: 18x10 w/ 285s

2) F: 18x9 w/ 255s; R: 18x10 w/ 285s (going to run two different sets of tires b/c there aren't any NT05's that are 255).

What do you all think?

Any reason you are not looking at going 19"s?
I did and am very happy with the overall look.

Had 19s before and were good but prefer 18s b/c ride quality is not as harsh.

So I guess the 18x9 and 18x10 is the way to go with a few of you. Anyone think this isn't as good as the 18x8.5 and 18x10 setup minus the mismatched tires (which can be all the same if I chose a different brand)?
