Default Yokohama AVS Sport... Good choice?

I just picked ordered my chrome z06 wheels from the Xtreme Motorsports GP and i'm trying to pick the tires that I should buy. So far i'm kind of leaning towards the 265/35/18 and 295/35/18 Yokohama AVS Sports. Anyone post their comments or criticism about them for me please? :)

I have less than 1k miles on mine, but so far no complaints. Huge leap forward from the Goodyear GSCs I was running. I haven't had the opportunity to experience their supposedly very good wet traction, but in the dry they're great. Much quieter and smoother than the Goodyears.

Hi
I did the same group purchase with Nate and am also putting 18s on the front.I have looked at the specs for the Yoko's on the tireracks web site and it appears that the tire to use on the front is the 275x35x18 as the 265 is too short
