Tire Brand & Size Question

So I recently ordered the Enkei RS05RR 18x9.5 +40 and I have kw v3 coilovers installed. I was planning on getting 255/35/18 tires and was wondering if it will clear well with a nice amount of drop with the coilovers but not a dumped setup.

Also I was thinking of getting the Nitto Invo's. What to know what you guys think about the tire and if not what would you guys recommend me getting.

Thanks in advance for your help.

You won't have any problem running that tire size with the kw's, as far as tire brand that's subjective, but as they say you get what you pay for!!!

Well that's what I want to know are the Nitto Invo's good anyone every try them out what they think about them? Are they good for summer and winter, for track and daily use. If you like it why you like it. If you don't like it why don't you like it.

You have nice coilovers. And beautiful wheels. Why go for a nitto? Seriously, just get MPSS in 245/35/18 or the 255/35s and be done.

Another vote for MPSS, but 255/35 square. Easy rotations.

what kinda mileage you wanna get out of your tires? What sort of performance do you expect? What kind of driving do you do/will you use them for?

Pilot sports are pricey, but they have a 30k warranty(on a square setup) and are a damn good tire for all around stuff
