My rim size is 18 X 10, with 295 35ZR18 tires. I am wanting to upgrade to a 305 45ZR18, however I am wondering if the tire will fit the wheel well, or if it will cause the tire to rub. I am wanting to make the change asap, so any information received will be appreciated.:read:

Is that a typo on the sidewall? you went from a 35 to a 45, so the second tire is 'taller' than the first. if the 35 series fits I'd stay with a 35 series for the new tire. Try doin a search I know a lot of the 03 guys were goin up in size I think i saw 335 dr's.
no typo, I have no traction at the moment and the stock tire is 295/35 18 p-zero....trying to go to nitto drag radial 305 45 18 is the closest size they make to fit the 18X10 ....just need to know if I'll have an issue with rubbing....the car is a S/C 281 Saleen BTW
Man thats' gonna be close. My friend runs 275/40/17(F) 315/35/17(R) and he rubs on hard hard cornering. Plus, I think he's made some mods to in the inner fender well to give him some extra room. Try taking a measurement on either side with your 295's and see how much room you got with those 18's, then figure out the width on a 305. Good luck!
