I like BlueS2000 recommendation but if the wheel is only an 18X8 rar it won't work correctly. The widest that will fit is a 245/35R18 and I would recommend the Goodyear GSD3. Match that with the 225/40R18 front and you are good to go.
If I can help let me know.
Thank you

Jim,
The 245/35-18's are shorter than 225/40-18. I've put on 255/35-18 on 18 x 8 50 offset volks and they didn't rub.
The 245/35-18 are for the 18 x 8 47offset Volk like the LE37's. The fronts should then be 215/40-18. Falken makes that combination .

For the GT-7's, 225/40-18 for the fronts and 255-35-18 rears. Will not rub unless your car is "dumped" more than 2". Tried and tested on SoCal S2k's I've worked on.
