Thanks for the question! We generally recommend the 305/35-18 tire size for the rear wheels of this setup. Unfortunately, there aren't a ton of good dual-duty summer tires in this size. You could size down and run 295/35-18 rear, 275/35-18 front tires with Continental Extremecontact sports if you want to stick with the 18s.

If you went with 19" wheels you could use the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires which are our recommended summer tire. The wheel fitment would be identical except for the wheel diameter. You would want to use 275/30-19s in the front and 305/30-19s in the rear. This would be our recommended setup as the Michelins are great tires. While we don't yet offer the 19" ARC-8R, we plan to do so in the future and hope to have more info on these wheels in the coming months!

Please let us know if you have additional questions!

Thanks
-Tom
