Im getting the chromie repros for my car very soon, and noticed that they sell 18 9.5s and 10.5s at the same price, so why not get the wider wheels and put on some wider tires

I have come to love the Nitto DR's and will put them on my Z as well, so my question is...Do you think 305 tires will fit and look good on the 10.5 rims

Will they stick out of the wheel well

Thanks for any help in advance

They fit, you can get a 315 in there, i have a 335 with a custom wheel

There isnt a 315 DR for an 18 inch rim or I would put on in there.

You can actually fit 315 in the rear AND the front. But alas, they WILL stick out. So will the 305, just not as much. Notice that your 10mm skinnier 295's are damn close to being flush with the rear fender as it is. :-)

Well I don't see the sticking out being much of a big deal, seeing as the 335's only stick out 1/2 inch
