I have my mine made up. I'm getting 18x7in Enkei RS6 rims. The only thing I'm undecided on is tires. I live in Rhode Island, which is home to the most unpredictable weather. I drive around town alot and alot of the roads have potholes and all sorts of nasty things. My first tire size that I'm seriously thinking about getting is 215/40/ZR18. I figure a need a little extra rubber in width to protect from curbs. Anybody have any suggestions?

Nahhh I heard the Paradas hydroplane like a bastard. Dry traction is good but i think these are the ones the had asymetrical tread design so you can't put them at any corner when rotating and such. I've heard ALOT of great feedback about the Kumho Supra 712's, like great wet/dry handling. It's a summer tire though so don't get this if you will use it to deal with snow.
