Will a 295/35/18 fit our fronts?i found a pretty good deal on a set.thanks,dennis

Hi Dennis,

They will fit, will be marginally taller (diameter 26.1" vs. 25.6" stock), have less revolutions per miles, 795 vs. 814 stock.

My recommendation would be to go for 11" front rim width if you can find them in a matching brand and design.

The 10" stock rim will work, but the 295 tire size is truly the maximum width you should consider installing on the stock rims.

Hope this helps,

Phil

Dennis,

I know some folks who run 305's and even 315's fronts without problems.

no rubbing probs when turning?:dunno:

I also run 1/2 spacers. I get a little rub with my track rims that are an inch wider in hard high speed corners. Just a touch to the upper inner fender lip.

I've run as big as 335 with no spacers on the wider rims but rubbed a little at full lock

Car didn't push though ;)
