    Tire - Rim Fit ?

    Would 295/35-18 tire fit fit a 9" rim ok?? To much bulge out?? Guy has some rims for sale, all are 9 " rims, the 275 s ll fit, just wondering bout the 295s?? Would a little bit more outter bulge affect handling??

    Really should be on a 10" wheel at least ... you're not going to get much benefit putting that size on a 9" over a smaller tire, other than cosmetic.

    If you go to the track at all (road course) It's better to have a squared setup on the car.
    - You can rotate the tires front and back to increase tire life

    Go to tire mfg's site and search model of tire and size, they will list suggested rim size under specs.
