18 Inch Tires?

18 Inch Tires?
I have a 2007 V6 Mustang with 16 inch tires on it. I was wondering what kind of tires and what size tires should I put on it. I am going to do 18 inch but don't really know what kind or the exact size. What do you think? I don't race but I do like to go fast and show off. Something on the cheaper side because I'm strapped for cash but if you could put the type, size and price it would be appreciated

255/45R18's on 18 x 9.5 wheels are a good match (makes wheel fitments easy to do since you can just use the Shelby wheel specs). They fill out a bit better than the factory 235/50R18's alot of 05-09 cars came with plus you get a little bump in lateral road holding and a255/45 on a 9.5" wheel improves tire response as well.
you can go wider of course as a 285/40R18 will fit all the way around with the stock ride height (not sure once you start lowering it).

If you go with a 8.5 wheel then use the 255/45 tire. If you go to a 9.5 wheel then I highly recommend the 285/40 tire. JMO~
Below are 18x8.5 FRPP wheels with 255/45 Nitto Invo's. Perfect fit!
