18x10 How big can I go?

[Zeekmann]

I have a 285/35/18 on them now but want to go wider, how wide can I go without it being too wide? Show me some pics if you got em.
Thanks

I have 295's on my 18x9 1/2's. 245's up front. Pics in a couple minutes

the pics look weak as hell. They look wider in person. My friend has 315's and in person my 295's are not much smaller.

i have 285/35/18 nitto 555 on my 9.5 in wheels and they fit perfect with only a slight bulge. and i also run 305/35/18 nitto 555r dr on the same rim and they are about 1 inch wider and bulge a little but look sweet on them so if you are running nittos 305 dr will be perfect

Hello Zeekmann,

You should be able to safely run a 295/35R18 Tire. I would be happy to make a recommendation on a tire, besides width, what you are you looking for in a tire?

I have authentic Saleen wheels, 18x10 in the rear. I have successfully mounted 315/30s from BFG(DRs!!!) and even 335/30s from Nitto(555r? I believe) so thats about as wide as you CAN go. But as far as recommended, I think its 295s. Try 315 nittos, theyll work nice

The BFG street drags would be 1 choice

Anything narrower is just being cheap. :shrug:

I would have to agree...I run a 315 and they are great!:burnout:

A buddy of mine managed to fit 335/30/18 Nitto NT555R drag radials on his 18x10s. Surprisingly they don't really bulge that much.

I know Nitto runs small but I think a 335 would be way to wide for a 18x10....do you have any pics???

He's on this forum under "YGETV8." You can PM him and see what he has for pics.

I did with mine. RT615's suck.

I think the 305/35-18 Nitto 555R will be a great option if you're looking for maximum grip. A 315 would be nice but it really needs an 11" wide wheel. The 335 would be even better but its certainly pushing the envelope.

Is it ok to run 315's with 10.5" wheels?

yes, its fine to run 315 on a 10''

 

[Matt@DTD]

Check out the manufactures spec sheets. Don't get me wrong, the tires will certainly mount up, but just because you can doesn't always mean you should.

Thanks, it looks like the Nitto 305 is the widest recommended tire I have found for the 10inch wheel. PM me a price for 2 shipped to 27803
