Great 255/35/18 ONLY Summer Tire?

I have 8 x 9.5 wheels. I really was hoping to get the Falken RT615's but they don't make them in 255/35/18. Personally, I think 245/40/18 looks too stretched. 255/40/18 looks way to bulky. Any suggestions on a summer tire that's a good value for the money like the RT615's?

Personally I would go with a 265, 40, 18. Most ground contact and most comfortable without changing speedo. And you can still get the rt's.

I would say the Bridgestone Potenza RE01R but I know they run a little more than the RT615s. In my opinion its worth the extra money.

look at the dunlop sport direzza z1. They actually compared it to all the tires you mentioned and most people liked it much more.
