Help With Tire Choice

Who is running 255 35/18's? I was thinking of Picking up the Wedsport TC005 18x9 Wheel

I am thinking of..

Michelin Pilot Sport PS2

Dunlop SP Sport Maxx

Yokahama AVS Sport

Bridgestone Potenza RE 050A

do any of these throw big warnings and red flags?

The so3's are great I have used them in the past. I still think the stockers are the best you can buy but now you have bigger rims

The so3's are garbage. I don't know how anyone who has every driven with them can say they're good.

They squirm SOOO much under any kind of load, squeel like a pig and wear horribly fast. Nothing good at all about them.

Driving in an Evo with them, was one of the most unstable Evo's I've ever felt. (Worse than my all-seasons)

Out of what tirerack says, I'd put my money on the RE050A's, simply for the highest cornering stability rating.
