Hey boys and girls, I was able to negotiate a decent deal on my stinger and got the dealer to throw in a full set of winters on 18" Yokohama ig52c with fastco switch alloys as well as a bunch of other freebies. My question is, has anyone driven on this set up? What are your thoughts on the tires for performance on the Stinger GT? Much appreciated!
 
The size appears to be 225/45R18. Don't go very fast on these. (106 MPH tops) The "R" means "H. D. Light trucks". However this may be moot, since Tire Rack says, "this tire isn't available for your 2018 Kia Stinger". Eh, what?

Yeah you're absolutely right about the size, don't think I can really go too quick here during Canadian winters. The dealer assured that the parts department has double checked that these tires will fit over the Brembos on the front, and are willing to provide a different tire/rim if it doesn't fit. Maybe I'll do a test fit over the weekend just for piece of mind :P
 
Got my winter set rolling early this year. 225/45R18 is right, my winter wheels are 18x8 with a 38mm offset, Sport Tuning T23's. Had them test fitted and everything was good!

Haven't driven on them yet though, can't comment on feel vs stock.
