What size tire would be the best choice if I no longer wanted to run staggered sizes ?

I have purchased multiple marauders with 4 fronts. 235/50 18. Also a few with 245/45/18

If you want to buy aftermarket wheel, just get some 26's, we would love to see pics of you next to it....

If I did all front size tires all around they might look to small. If I did all rear tire size all around the may seem to large ? What size 18" tire is a in between?
Anything concept larger than 20" is out of my wheel house. But if I had the extra coin I would go with a 20" wheel.

235-55-18..same width as front but an inch taller..I think Paul, blackened300A, ran that front size in front at one time.

What about choosing load ratings 99 - 103 ?

Assuming you have done Carfixer specs and are getting unacceptable wear you could try and find a harder compound for the tire. Perhaps a SUV compound. Just don't go slamming the Marauder into the corners as hard.

Like the 1st pic with smaller size tires all around. Did you also lower the car any ?

I like the photon right. These are the 245/55/18 correct?

I really like the Beefy look.

burt ragio ... Did you also lower the car any ?
No, that's normal ride height. The wheels are actually full-size spares.
