18x10 enough rim for a Nitto NT05 315/40 drag radial? Ive been researching and I can't seem to find anyone that has these tires on a 10" rim. Ive seen 9.5 and 10.5....It says they need a minimum of a 10.5 rim and I know thats usually a suggestion. Would a 10" rim be enough to properly fit this tire on and be safe?? I dont want to run a 305/45 because its too tall and too sloppy on the highway..and I cannot find any other DR in this size. If not im gonna go with the 325/40/18 M&Hs because they run really skinny and seem to fit absolutely perfect on a 10" rim they are just ugly...

I have ran them and had no problems at all what so ever, people are going to come in here and say its not safe, its really up you and if you feel comfortable with them.

The pic below is my 295/35/18 nitto nt05(non drs) on a 18x10 wheel. I think they fit perfect and a 315 is about 3/4in wider than these tires so id say go for it, aslong as you're not taking super corners you should be fine.
