Hello mate,
Just had a set of AVON ZZ3's fitted and they are superb, very sticky and loads of grip!

Bridgestone do RE070 in 235/40-18 size, as they're fitted as standard to the RA-R.

Price and availability is another question though.

Did the same - 17 to 18 - with Eagle F1 GSD3 , seem Ok to me. Not tried them in the wet yet but pretty grippy in the dry and don't tramline.
