Low profile tires for 18"x 8 +35
 
I'm thinking about getting the TSW Nurburgring 18". What are some good low profile tires?

Why do you want a "low profile tire"?

For that wheel you will want 235/40 not really low profile...

Summer tire?

yes summer tires. I had 18" rims on my gti, and I like the look of less tire wall.

So he can bend them when he hits a pot-hole.

235/40 is the correct size for 8" wheels, as this poster said. Are you looking for 25 or 30 series sidewalls? Ride quality is going to suffer, but hey it's your car.

Can you even get 235's in 25 series? LOL.
