Can you take a guess of what tire sizes you should get?

Well imguessing you'd recormned 7.5 front and 8.5 rear,
after talking to a few friend in the uk most people find that the stagarded setup gives a bad road handling because our roads are crap so i think ill go 8.5 all round

No, I would suggest you to get 18x8.5/18x9.5.

cliffy i just installed a set of 18x8.5 all around amg IV's the local guys recommended that set up since my car is just a 200K and the 9.5 with the 255's would slow my cars performance and i would need it since ive got lots of hills to climb. But my friend Whitey has had 18's staggard and now 19's staggard and claims no performance loss or handling loss. infact hes even crazier now with the 19's.
