Guys, I plan to buy a second set of 18's. Curious about the heights. I want to run 275/35 and 295/35, even thinking of 295/40/18.. what is the rule of thumb to not mess with the computers?
Anybody running these with no issues?
I've looked at calculators. People have ran 305/35/19 and the 295/40 would be the same height overall

275,295/35's should be fine,,,just under 2%.
un-sure the maximum without getting Christmas tree effect...as mine are just under 2% with no problem's.
I've heard 3% was max differential,but not confirmed.
