new tires
I'm having a very hard time finding 18inch tires for my R/T. Who has replaced their tires with new ones, and what kind and size. We all know that 225/60/18s come on the car. Also how large can I go without the tires rubbing.

RE: new tires
Yes the BFG KDW is a good choice but hard to find sometimes in that size. Seems to be an understock of that size nationwide.
A second choice which I resorted to is the Kuhmo Ecsta STX. Its a high performance class tire in a 255/55/18 also at $105.00 per tire at Tirerack.com.
I just installed some and they seem to be good so far. Low noise, but had balancing problems with 2 of them. Required 3 oz. of weight which is a lot according to the tech.
Anyway at the low price it is worth the road test for me.
