another widest tire question

[toplessmustang]

i got tired of the chrome cobra Rs so i just ordered a set of 18/9 18/10 chrome deep dish bullits. i was just wondering whats the widest tires i can put on them. also if anyone has any pics of these type of wheels on their car. ive never put a set of wheels and tires on a car,ive always bought cars with wheels on them and just bought the same size tires that were on the car. i just dont want to screw up and get a set of tires that dont look right on the rims.

The biggest you can put on the back is 315's. I went with that out back, and 255's up front. But some people go with 275's up front.

If you put 315's you may have to flip the quad shock. But that takes like 5 minutes.

18x9=265/40/18

18x10=295/35/18

i would not put a 315 on a 10" wheel---305 is absolute maximum and even then will not look good imo. it'll look like a 275 on an 8" wheel--total ass.

it'll look like a 275 on an 8" wheel--total ass.

i have 275's all around, on my 17x8's they create this kind of deep dish look, they look good; i suppose it depends on which tire you have

well the ups guy dropped off the new wheels,i know everybodys got a set of bullits nowadays but i love the deep dish and i was getting so tired of the cobra's.
also does anyone else have an opinion to tire size or any pics. Green GT do you have any up close pics of yours.

Someone say pics?


17x10.5" (NOT 18x10). I agree w/ Ben, I'd run 295-305/35/18's on an 18x10.

Sorry I didnt notice you got 18's
I have 17x10.5's out back.
And I cant see why some people dont like the 315's.
