Does anyone have any info on this? (I already have Yoko Advan Neova AD08s on my ZCP rims; I'm not needing street performance tires, looking at track tires.)
i just went through this dilemma as well... after many searches, and speaking to Eddy at APEX (very friendly and helpful!), i decided to go with a 18x9.5 and 18x10.5 with 265/35 and 285/30. this combo is quite common and widely used by track and race guys.

yes tire choices are limited... i am going with the BFG R1's but the R888's were another option (they even have a 295/30 R888 rear which wouldve worked nicely), but i decided to go with the R1's. there are othe r comps choices in this size from yoko, michelin cups, hoosier R6 (i think?), but the R1's were my fav choice for bang for the buck and grip levels.

received the wheels very very promptly, thank you Eddy at APEX!
