And yes you will need a spacer this was just to test fitment I don't have springs on yet or the fenders rolled which I will need. Hoping to get it done next week.

A 315/30/18 R888 belongs on a minimum 10.5" rim (10.5-11.5).

This is how the tire construction was designed.

Not saying you can't mount it on a 10" rim, but you are cheating yourself out of some of the usable tread, just to mention a few of the shortcomings.

I just sold those same rims and had 315/30 888's on my car....they run a little big and if you have a 10.5 rims there is no bulge. I went with AFS 18's and they fit a little better and feel more stable on them.

I understand but they don't make the black saleen in a 10.5. And I'm not cheating myself out of anything this is a 5k mile car and gets driven maybe 1k they will do what I need them to hook.

I have 315 nt01's on my 10" saleens and don't need a spacer. Guess cause the nittos run a little smaller?
