Unfortunately, I've put in a lot of money in performance that my 1st, 2nd, and now 3rd gear are just spinning. My car is not going anywhere with the OEM tires.

I still have the stock Si wheels. Will a 245, 40, 18 fit perfect with no rubbing on eibach pro kit?

I'm either replacing all 4 tires or only the 2 front. I don't know which tires/size that would work perfectly wth no issues

I was considering putting semi slicks up front and keeping the back OEM since all I do is spin.

If to replace only 2 or all 4, what tires and size do you recommend?

Any suggestions would be helpful!

I'm in San Diego

Depends on your wheels.

On 18x8.5 +35 they definitely rubbed.

I'm still on the stock 18x8 50 offset si wheels
I see. I'd say you are probably fine. 245/40R18 on my hatchback sport with OEM wheels didn't rub with the Sportlines.

What tires are you talking about using?

yes
sometimes running it on the weekend
Bang for the buck? Firestone Firehawk Indy 500

Money is no object? Michelin Pilot Sport 4S

I'd get the Firestones and some lighter wheels. I'm running them (255/35R18) on 18x9.5 +38 Ambit wheels (not too expensive) that are each about 9lbs lighter than stock.
