Nitto neo gen, one of the best tires I have ever used . They are great on dry and wet weather , thread wear also last a long time.

You want 205/35/r18s that's what I have on my em2 and for a good affordable tire look for Nankangs on eBay I got a set of four shipped to door for $320

I meant 215/35/18 I had typed 205 my bad. Def go 215 I have 0 rub issues with full steering lock to lock. Look up the nankangs on eBay it's a great deal and its from discount tire direct so if you go get them put on at discount tire you get the road hazard warranty which is awesome
