Good 255/35/18 summer tire for the money?

I have 8 x 9.5 wheels. I really was hoping to get the Falken RT615's but they don't make them in 255/35/18. Personally, I think 245/40/18 looks too stretched. 255/40/18 looks way to bulky. Any suggestions on a summer tire that's a good value for the money like the RT615's?

18x9.5 with a 275-35-18 fits just fine...we have done it on AGP's EVO X.

275-35-18 would be the correct tire size to keep OE overall Diameter( actually just a hair shorter, but its the closest in size)

255/35 is too short ni overall height
