18's

[Insayne]

Anyone running 18 by 10.5's with 315's? i know the 17" guys get them to fit by doing anything from nothing to flipping or removing the quad shocks. question is will the 18 change the fitment? technically it should have less sidewall bulge do to the lower profile sidewall. pics would be appreciated also

My buddy had 18x10.5 saleens on his 99 Gt and he didn't have to do anything to get them to fit without problems. I put them on my car to see if there was any rubbing issues and there wasn't any.

He had 315's?

plug 315/30-18 into the search window, and you'll get 100 hits.
The tire height of the 315/30-18 is same as the 315/35-17 and width should be w/in a few mm (depending on the brand). So it's apples-apples on everything but the $$.

That link will show you the spec comparison of the 315 on a 17 and 315 on an 18. Can also get a rough estimate of pricing (they're pretty competitive pricewise).
