Free shipping to Michigan as well. My local discount store was saying there might be shipping charges so I just went ahead and bought them direct.
Facts on tire size:
A 265/35/18 will fit on the rear of these rims and will NOT rub with a S4!
Still trying to figure out what front size to run however. Might just end up getting the 18x8.5 cheap off ebay and getting the 235/40/18's like tire rack recommends.

It depends on the tire, but yes, they will fit in the rear without issue with upto a 275 tire. Fronts might need to run with a 255.

Andrew, your calculator says 275 is 2.something mm too wide for the front. With a camber change, that should not be a problem depending on how wide the tire is relative to standard sizing.
It says 275 will fit in the rear with stock 21mm S spacer.
Now I just need to find some big MPSCs or R6s...

I'll admit the front tire portion of my calculator is not very accurate. And just becasue it sticks out by 2mm, that doesn't mean it will rub. ANyway, if you get some better data points for me, please let me know and I'll adjust it as needed.
BTW, did you notice the update?
