335 nitto's on a 18x10" rim
Anybody have pics of the 335 nitto drags on an 18x10" rim? I'm wondering if I need to widen my rims to make that work... I know the nittos run small, but 335 seems pretty big for a 10" rim...

there are some pics on here, nittos run small but they still bulge on a 10" wheel. It's not terrible but it is noticable. I've seen a 335 pilot sport on a 10 also and it bulged more than I would personally run. Normally you want an 11-12" inch wheel for a 335. 295-305is a perfect fit for 10" wheels.

i got 315 nitto's on a 10.5 and there is almost no bulge. i will prob go with a 335 next time!!

Just qurious, and for other too, what is your back spacing (/spacer) measurement? I for one is gonna need traction next season ;)

ps. the spell check can curse me with a GM product, I'll just crush it...

Can someone try to find some good pics? I don't know the best way to search for them...

Well if its no different than a nitto 275 on an 8" stocker rim, then I'm going for it... :thumbsup: Can anyone confirm? I just want to be sure, as its alot of bones...

the nitto 305 is wider for the 18 than the 315 for the 17s are... i know it sounds retarded but its true... i think 335s might be a little much personally.

335's will buldge alot on a 10" wheel.

I would tend to agree, but this guy is a member here and runs a 335 on this 18x10. I don't know about you, but it doesn't look that bad actually:

well it depends on the wheel the wheels in this pic dont look to bad cause of the lip. if you were to throw a 335 on a stock 03/04 cobra 10" wheel it would look worse.

the stock wheel on a 03/04 cobra is 9" (not 10). And its not about looks as much as it is about how much hangover there will be. a 10" rim is a 10" rim.

At this point, I think i'm going to stick with the 305, but does anyone have a 315 suggestion that would wear like a nitto drag?
