If you could fit a 10.5' rim it could be possible. I can tell you fitting a 10' rim was tough

Maybe a 10.5 +30 something thereabouts. Still, it'd be tough to stuff it that's for sure. Would need a little stretch just to get them in the wheelwell cleanly even with moderate -camber.

Hey guys I'm running a wide body (flares) 50mm wider than stock. Fenders are cut and I am on Airlift bags. I'm switching up my setup to go more aggressive/meaty. My wheels are 18X10 -13 and 18X13 -26 . My plan is to wrap them in 305/35/18 and 335/30/18 Toyo Proxes R888. My question is do you think the 305/35/18 is too large for the fronts? I'm aiming for a specific look and it's not stretched and cambered. My build is S30 track Inspired, so I want thick and meaty. Any info/suggestions is appreciated. PFA

I think you will be fine...I'm planning on running 305/35/18 or 315/30/18 square on my next set of tires. Go big or go home!!!

That 335/30-18 R888 is a full inch smaller in diameter than spec

It's hard finding wider tires in 18's nowadays. I'd prefer to stick with 18's but will probably end up with a set of 19 so I can actually get the tires I want.
