does 315/30/18 tire fits 18 x 9.5 wheel?
how is the fit if it is? thank you |
c'mon now.the reason i ask this is mr VRT guy saying he's running this set up on his SUPERCAR.so i just want to see what you guy think about this and will link him this thread.any one?

Come on Steve. This is surely a joke, You should be running that tire on a 11" wide rim (10.5" minimum). Talk about tapered sidewalls. LOL :p
|
rofl. might as well put swampers.

i'm NOT kidding you.THIS IS NOT a joke.and that's why i want you guys to say something here :D

i think 275 is the best looking for 9.5
|
OK.. I called my tire guy and he doesn't think so.. That's a truck tire. I did a search on tire rack & Big O and they do not carry such a beast (in 18's). I think it's doubtful, but you never know.
Doing a calc on the correct tire diameter for this size, you are looking at tire with an overall diameter of about 37.84 inches. |
yes,there's such tires.and yes that's the tire on his car but he keep saying his rim is 9.5" which it BS to me.

315mm tire on a 9.5" wheel? He is either lying about the wheelsize, or he is a moron -you take your pick.
In regards to making larger than 315mm tires for 17" or 18" wheels, there are a handful out there. Here are the specs for a 1997 Dodge Viper: Front 17.0" x 10.00" silver alloy wheels Rear 17.0" x 13.0" silver alloy wheels P275/40ZR/17 front tires 335/35ZR/17 rear tires |
I have seen people put a 275 on a 8" stock wheel, so I suppose it could physically be done. Not an ideal set-up though and there will be significant sidewall bulge.

Steve,
You can certainly mount 315mm tires on a 9.5" wide wheel, but it is definitely out of spec. (read not safe). |
