A friend of a friend has a brand new, still in the box set of 18" Konig Holes. After lookin' at the Konig website, I'm runnin' under the assumption that the 18" wheels only come as 18" x 7.5" .. Will these fit on the MSP? I'm prayin' they will, cause he's offering me a REALLY good deal on them.

And if they do, what kind of tires do you guys recommend? I've been readin' on the forums and on other sites, and the BFGoodrich g-force T/A KWD-2 tires caught my attention. Anyone have those, know someone that has those -- and how do they like 'em? Or any other suggestions? I'm looking for summer tires, as I have steelies with winters that I run, so that's not even a factor. I'm mostly concerned with the handling -- I want something that's gonna stick. And decent tread wear would always be nice, tho' I know that the lower the profile and sticker the tire, the faster it's gonna wear. But, y'know.

Thanks for the help. :D

I have the bfg's. I like them. A tad more noisy than the stocks.

I agree, Toyo's are great tires! I ran their Toyo Proxes T1-S last summer, but I just sold them because I'm switching to the new Toyo Proxes T1-R. :)
