What's the issue with tyres? Those should be available sizes...
I'm quite confident I had a set of 285/35/18s on my last rims.. and might even have 275/35/18s on them right now actually... I can run to garage and check but those sizes sound right to me.
Edit: I see now you mentioned 285/30/18.. I'm not sure but I would think that would be a size too small.. why would you want to run undersized tyres exactly? Arguably it will slow your acceleration down a tad or mean you have to rev higher to get the same roadspeed.. _________________

I'm still not sure what the issue is sorry?
They should be available sizes. Are you just having difficulty locating brands or?
( IMO, I've gone for oversized tyres as the guards are massive and I don't like the look of the stock undersizing going on with our cars. I couldn't fathom going even smaller, but I guess everyone's different? Don't you think 285/30/18 look tiny in the huge rear arches of the Aristo? Go for 285/35 and not only is it easier to find, it also looks better.. but that's just IMO. You're free to do as you like haha ) _________________

I have mine lowered and the tyres to me look great. I was just asking if anyone has any lying around for sale.
Sorry should have been more specific. _________________

OHHH!
Then this belongs in the Wanted To Buy section mate.
FYI, I'm about as low as they go and I run 305/30/20, so very oversized.. so it's not an issue of height I guess more just the kind of style you're after.. _________________
