Tire size question...

[street6]

I have a 2004 Pilot EX. I recently got ahold of some 18" Acura RDX wheels that I need to outfit with tires for my Pilot. The 18" RDX rims are 7.5" in width and my question is.......should I go with 255/55/18 or the 235/60/18? I see most going to the 255 but they are HUGE tires and they weigh 6lbs more each. I'm more interested in the 235's but don't want to run into any problems. Stock overall tire diameter is around 29", the 235's are 28.95", and the 255's are 29.04"

Thanks in advance for any information.

Tire weight shouldn't be an issue in either size if you choose from the Michelin Primacy MXV4, Michelin Latitude Tour HP or Continental CrossContact LX Sport.
