Anyone running 275 35 18 on an 18x10, i am looking at some michelin pilot sports in the size and can get a really good deal, anyone have pix?
Will it look undersized? Should i spring the extra loot for the 285 or 295 because it makes a big difference?

Thanx in advance.

It will fit but will not look good. You will not have protection for the rim.. I have a few pictures but can't post them at work.

Yes, they generally run small.

I have 285's with a 3/8" spacer on 18x10 godspeed rims and they are rather perfect. The tires are general acclaim's They don't bulge.

that doesnt look to bad tango, but i can see where a 285 or a 295 might be a little better. Do you have a spacer? I was thinking maybe a 3/8 or 1/2. I bet a 275 with a 3/8 would look pretty good.

I did not have any spacers.. The 285's fit good. I had those on my foxbody.. I will see if I can find some pictures of those..

That's exactly what I run, 275's with a 3/" spacer. My earlier post i spoke wrong saying 285's. I'll try an get a pic.
