Hey George,
I thought you might find this interesting: the recent, slightly odd (V6???), Fast 'n Loud Pantera build has 18's on the front and 19's on the rear. The tire sizes they used were 225/40-18 and 285/35-19. I noticed they didn't even roll the front fender lips. IMO, a 225/35-18 would have been better on the front, because it's only 24.2" tall. An alternative size for the rear would be 305/35-19 (which is an OEM size and a better height match if you use a 225/40-18 on the front).
