Finally, my friend is sending me 18 inch wheels I bought long time ago so I am shopping for new tires.
Thanks to nwoods, I see all right tires for 18 inch wheel here:

I initially thought about getting Cooper Zeon or Nitto Terra (285/60/18) but rubbing could be an issue for me so I am thinking about 275/60/18 - biggest I can put without worrying about rubbing.
According to nwoods chart, I see Yokohama Geolander A/T-S as only option for 275/60/18 size. Two questions I have:
1. Is it good for most on-road and occasional off-road?
2. should I buy them on-line to save money? Many local shops offer free services (such as flat fix, rotation) with tire purchase. I guess it's personal preference (cheap vs more service) but would like to hear others' opinion.
Thanks in advance. - Brian
