Tire Recommendations
Hey everyone...I just purchased a set of Boss 318 Black Chrome wheels for my X and was wondering if you guys could help me out with choosing some suitable tires
They will only be on in the spring/summer so I'm really only looking at performance tires.
The wheels are 20 x 8.5 with a 35mm offset. I'm looking for pretty wide tires but I want to keep the price below $225.00 a piece. Also, is any fender rolling necessary?
Thanks,
Justin

There are lots of great performance tires out there, check out www.tirerack.com. I use Goodyear Eagle F1 GS/D3s on my stock rims... they're a bit pricey but really an awesome tire.

Also check out the new (this year) Goodyear Eagle F1 All Seasons. I have a set on my X and they are fantastic (stiff sidewalls, very responsive, ok in the winter)

Yea, I've been spending a lot of time on TireRack as of late.
Here are the two different sizes that I have been looking (275 &265):

I'm really not sure which to choose. Anyone have any experience with these tires?
Edit: NM, it doesn't let me link to search results. Well I was looking at 275/35/20 and 365" ".

Yea, I've ruled out the 275. Is there any way I could get the 265 to fit?

The only real complaint I've heard so far is the noise which I think I can live with.
But I just want to make sure they will fit on the X.
