hi i have a 94 mustang gt and it currently has a 295/35/18 which is 26.1" in diameter on it now and i want to get a little taller tire on the back i was just wondering if a 285/40/18 which is a 26.97" tall tire would fit in the rear without any clearance issues. The tire would be mounted on a 10.5" rim, also i have ford lowering springs in the back so its like .75-1" lower than stock. Also if the 285/40/18 is too tall do you think a 275/40/18 which is 26.66" tall would fit. thanks in advance.

only way to really tell is to measure but most likely you won't have any problems.
