Arrow 18x10 Wheels

So im looking to buy some new wheels and really like the look of the 315 size tire but love the look of the 18x10 Deep dish rims. They recommend a 285 size tire for the 18x10 but could i put a 315 size tire on them? If so is there anything i should be aware of? Why dont they recommend a 315 tire for the 18x10?

thanks guys

i have 18x10 and want to put 315's on mine but I cant seem to find them. let me know if you find them. 17x10's look great with 315's on them so the 18's should look good as well.

Try looking for 315/30 tires those will get better results.

You really should have a 10.5" wheel to run a 315, as this size is max per tire manufacturers. It will certainly run on a 10" wheel, but will have a bit of a bulge.
