I just ordered sum BFG t/a ZR (really cheap $119 each at tire rack) in the 295/35/18 size but forget to check if they would fit my rim, I have 18x9's. Can anyone help me out with this?

I guess you could try it but it will be a tight fit with some bulging.

A lot of people are running 275's on stock 8" rims. I am running 295's on a 10" rim and that sits perfect.

Here is a pic I have of 295/30/18. They are not mine, but I remember the owner posting this original pic said it was a tight fit and a bitch for the shop to install. But they did it.

But i know yours are 295/35, so i dont know if thats going to make a difference. Hopefull it works out for you...

i wouldnt do it, 265's are recommended for the 18x9. could be dangerous.

WTF???? can you give me the link? i cant find them and WANT THEM BAD!!!!

btw, my buddy has some 315s on a 17x9 wheel. id say GO FOR IT!

i got those $119 295/35/18 tires on my 18x10 saleen rims,
i know if i hit a curb it would definatly scratch the rim

My 275s are flush with the rim. Adding 20mm is only 10mm on either side. Should be fine. I think I've seen pics before. Itll be easier to mount than the 30 series due to the extra sidewall. I'm looking for a thread I saw before with pics. I may order a couple of those tires tonight. Anyone have experience with them? Grip well?

Found the thread, and some pics of the same size on 18x9s. Looks good.



I'm going to order two tonight I think...

I use to run a 295x35x18 on my 18x9's. now I run a 315 on my 17x9 with no problem, but of course they are nitto's so they run a little small.

Changed my mind. I read some more about those tires. They are discontued and dont seem too good really. I think I'll wait and pay the 215 for the new BFG Drag radials in the same sixe.
