[QUOTE="wheelhopper, post: 7700494, member: 32430"] I have the Nitto 305/35/18 on a set of Kazera 18x9.5 rims. The 305s are actually a bit wide for the 9.5. They work fine and are plenty wide. But the tire does pull in a little at the rim compared to the tread width. Ideally a 10" wide rim should be used. But I am a road course guy, so I pay a little more attention to the sidewall than drag racers do. One good thing about the Nittos is, I did not have to change the IRS bolts or do anything else for clearance. If you drive your car more on the street than at the track, I would do the Nittos. I had 17" Nittos on my stock wheels and put about 8K miles on them. I sold them with about 1/3 the tread still left. As far as hooking. I was going to the track about twice a month for the 2 years I had the 17" Nittos, attesting to their wear factor. My best 60' was 1.68 and was typically around 1.8. If you go for the Nittos you wont be disappointed. Even if you decide your next set will be the BFGs. They are a great tire. I even used them for some road course driving on several occasions. They did very well. My instructor was shocked when I told him that I was using them. I don't think the BFGs would be so well rounded of a tire. [/QUOTE]
