Need pricing info on tires.

Brand of tires is not of concern at this point, just need a rough estimate.I was wondering what kind of a price am i looking at for the following:

235/40/18 18x8
235/40/18 18x8.5
265/35/18 18x9.5

Are you talking just tires or wheels too? For the tires you're talking about $550 or a bit less for a set of your plain-jane Kumho Ecsta 712s all the way on up to about $1000 for a set of Michelin Pilot Sports.

As for wheels, you could pay anywhere from like $800 for a set of shitty knockoffs from WheelMax or you could spend 3 grand on something really nice.

So yeah you might want to try and narrow this down just a tad.

Go to tirerack.com and use the "search your tire size" link. Goddamn, you're lazy!

Hmmm...I actually checked tirerack.com, but wasn't sure if I found what i was looking for. I understand they list numerous brands of tires according to the stated 18in sizing. Wouldn't there be a price difference when choosing tires; for instance getting tires for 18x8 compared to that of 18x8.5 or 18x9.5? If so, how much of a price difference am i looking at. Hopefully that clarify any confusion to my orginal question.

Tires are priced by size, not wheel width.
