the worse part is going to be the 8.5" not so much the 285.

They arrive today! I'll be test fitting some 295/30-18 Hoosiers this weekend and assuming all goes well I'll be ordering some 285/30 v710s or those Hoosiers.

Didn't get a chance to borrow the tires to test fit today but I will be next saturday. I'll be fitting a 275/35 Hoosier, and if they fit hopefully ordering a 285/30.

Picked up a 275/35-18 Hoosier today to test fit. I'll post up pics Saturday to show clearance front at rear.

I have failed you all. A friend of a friend was supposed to do the mounting for us for free (since we have a spare wheel and tire from a friend I need to un-mount, mount to my wheels, then return to his wheel) but he blew us off this weekend. Soon!!

Check Sponaugle's newest post though, 275/35-18s on 18x9.5 +45s fit with a minor fender roll.

Mounted on the rear:


Rear inside:


Rear outside:


Front inside:




Front outside:


It looks like the inside is no problem, but the outside rear might rub. What do you guys think?
