yeah thats what i thought too, ive heard Nittos run super small. Also, with the 305/35/18 in the rear on a 18x9 rim, should i be running any spacers?

I have a 275 on my 8" rim, it doesn't look too big for it but the inside of the tread is wearing faster than the outside; and no it's not overinflated.

yeah ive heard over and over again that the nittos run really small...most likely ill go with the 305's, which im sure is more like a 285

Here's my 275, a 305 would look good.

Not 100%, but for my application I feel that it would be my best choice.

for a Nitto 305 would be perfect for your 9" rim! rgs runs 315 nittos on his 17x9 03 wheels (same as mine) and they look fine...imo.
