Tire recommendation

Getting my wheels finally set up. I am looking at tires and have been looking for federal SS-595 which run wide. Looking at 225/35/18 and 255/35/18. Are those a good rolling size that match?

+This.

The OP is going for a low-priced budget tire. He's probably not going to want to spend for PSS or other higher-end tires.

I am going with AS3's for my OEM wheels. Just didn't feel like spending a ton of money on wheels I don't know if I will keep past the fall.

If you are not worried about the winter the conti DW is a good tire and doesn't run as wide as the PSS maybe you can go up a tire size then 235/265 instead of 225/255
