WHAT! your 295's look nothing like my 295's lol

but yeah for a 10" width wheel, 295s would be the max "advised" size from what i read on tire company websites (Falken & Nitto)

you could probably slap on some Nitto NT555R305/30ZR18 (if those are 18"s)

You can actually fit 315 Nitto 555's on 9 inch rims. They run really small for 315's.

sure you can slap on any size tire onto a small wheel, i've seen some guy slap on 315's on a 8" wheel but is it safe? probably not... is your ride height not appropriate height for being 315's on a 9"? no... speedo will be a bit more off since the width would be smaller and the tires are stretched out in a sense...

since 295/30ZR18 will read 3mph lower than what your really going and 295/35ZR18 will actually be1mph over speedo reading... so.. imagine what it'd be w/ a stretched tired & smaller diameter, it'd be worst.

well if I can fit 315 nittos on 9" rim, I have seen ZW99GT's ride, then I bet I could put 335's on a 10", what do yall think?
