Default 275's on 18x9

Does anyone have 275/35/18 on all four tires, if so can I get a pic? Do they rub?

Lance how do those 285's fit those 18x10's, mind posting a close pic? I might replace two of my 18x9's with 18x10's.

I'm asking cause I need tires and will be ordering them sometime soon.

Thanks

Well I just got my 275/40/17's on 17x9 wheels (sorry not exactly what you asked for) and I mounted one tire first since you can't return them after they are mounted, and I put it on the front and turned the wheel both ways and it didnt rub, but it's really close... I hope it doesnt rub when i'm actually driving and the suspension is moving up and down.

Those are the tires I'm getting, sumitomo hrt II's or something like that. Hows the traction and tread ware on those tires. I know Tirerack rates them pretty well.

OH, and thanks for the pics. They do fit well.

they wont look right on 18's and im sure they dont make tires in that size for a 18" rim. 295 or 305

when i was tire retarded and took steedas advice i put 285/35 all around on my 18's and they rubbed pretty bad up front. let me find a pic of them.

The biggest tire you can find for 18's are 315/30/18's.Almost all of them are DR's and cost over $300 each.
