255/35r18 front
295/35r18 rear
Have this setup on my roush ( its what it came with off the lot ) Have no complaints about it this setup.
I run the KDWs. a 295 KDW is about as wide as a 315 Nitto, or TOYO tire, just FYI.

For some reason they don't make 265/35/18s in the KDW anymore, I used 245/40/18 on my 9" fronts and 295/35/18 on my 10" rears

I like the KDWs but I have set of 18s which 9.5" fronts and 10.5" rears, and I wondering what size tires to get for them since I think the 245/40/18s will be too stretched on a 9.5" rim.

I put rims and tires on my 99 cobra recently.
18x10 rear and 18x8.5 front. In the front we went with 255/40/18 and the rear is 275/40/18 (going off the top of my head).
For a good price on tires call up this alignment shop and talk to Jesse http://www.yelp.com/biz/treds-hayward
Tell him Jeff told you to call him.

I would agree with it being no smaller than 255 in the front. I have 275s all around on my sn with 17x8s and it handles well. Its a bit pricy but i would look for some 275s for the front and 295 in back

265/35/18 and 295/35/18 if it's a 94-04
If it's a 05+, I advise you to go slighty taller.

you need taller tires with 18's on a 05+body. get 40 series tires and the width is up to you.

+2, you could pull off 18's if you are dead set on that size with some lowering springs and tall tires. I'd do 19's if you were to purchase the rims.
