Default rear tires

Hey I want to see rear wheels with tires, and how wide is the limit for a 10 inches wheel, Because I want to buy new wheels for my stang and I found these tires


They are 335/30/18, and I want to mount them on these wheels



I just want to know if this is possible, and if you have pics please post them, I just want to see how I want my car to look like, thanks!@

335 is too wide to safely run on a 10" wheel. 315 max, but even that is over kill.

with a 335 you're going to need an 11.5 wheel, atleast.

Thanks guys, those tires were very cheap and thats why I was trying to mount them on my wheels, but thats dangerous. I will pay a bit more I want to get 315/30/18 they are so damn expensive but look great on gt's and in a lot of other cars, it does not matter if its a v6 the tires look great on any car, hopefully my car is a gt, and all I want is that staggered look, they look sick.

Perhaps I can be of assistance. DO IT!!!

I've had no less than three different sets of 335's on my three different rigs and each and every one of them were on 18X10's, and I never had a problem one out of any of them.Safety schmafety.

Now, I'm not trying to be a smartass, but if someone can tell me exactly what the danger is and then back it up with links to stone cold statistical facts about the dangers of a 335 or a 10" rim, I'll stand down. Until then, I'm saying do it because it looks cooler than hell!

If you do it, PM me or JonBeast and either one of us can give you the 4-1-1 on what you'll need to do depending on your wheel offset, because there are certain issues you may face. But you should do it. It's AWESOME!

finding a reputable shop is KEY. One shop I took mine to didn't know **** from shinola - they couldn't do it. The other shop I took it to was able to do it, but it was a beeYOTCH. So choose wisely

Its too late already those were my cousing tires, and he was trying to sell them because he now has goodyear on his vette, and he was selling them to me for 150 bucks. However now they are sold, but anyhow if I find something bigger I will get it Thanks for the advice.
