Sport Comps are decent "tiers"

What size wheels are these going on? Seems silly to have a 255/275 setup, if the rims are all the same size, at the least why not put 275's on all 4 corners?

oh shit... 9's on the front, you should definitely have 275's on there and the 10's will sport a 295 or 305 nicely

unless of course your going for that stretched look which I'm not really a fan of but have seen a few Stangers out there like that

lol

it's just a personal preference thing for me...for example, I have 275's on the front and 315's on the back just cause I like that big staggered look HOWEVER if you were say getting these tires to run at the track, then I would say don't do that, your better off keeping them the same or as close as possible in all 4 corners for better handling on Road Course situation...

275/40R18 is about an inch taller than your OEM tires. Is the car lowered, or stock ride height? If it's lowered at all, you should consider something closer to stock tire height.

255/35R18 and 275/35R18 would be a good combo for 18x9 and 18x10 on a new Edge car, Firestone has those sizes in the Firehawk Indy 500 which is a great performer for the money.

275/35R18 and 295/35R18 is a nice combo too that's more aggressive, but the 295 isn't available in the Firestone or the BFG that you asked about originally.

I have the BFGs on my car as well. Also pretty happy.
Way stickier than the Michelins and Pirellis I had run previously.

I had Sport Comp 2's several years ago and thought they were great. Would definitely get them again if the price was right (as it was when I bought them).

I have a set of Sport Comp 2's on my Cobra. 245's up front and 275's out back. It's a decent summer tire and I would purchase a set again.
