Default Anybody try 315/30/18's on 10.5" ZO6 wheels yet?

I'm thinking about running some 315/30/18's on the rear ZO6 wheels. I was thinking of the 53mm offset ZO6's and I also have a 5mm spacer I can use if I need to. Anybody tried this combination yet?

Thanks, Mike. Please do post up your impressions once you get them installed.

I'm looking at the new Pilot Sport PS2's and according to Michelin the 315/30/18 is acceptable on a 10.5" wheel for both the Pilots and the PS2's. So I'm not real concerned about that aspect. I'm more concerned about how they'll work in an F-body rear fenderwell even with the more aggressive 53mm offset wheels (and probably the spacer). Fundamentally, I don't see how it'd be any different than 315/35/17's, but those seem to be hit or miss. At $400 per tire I kinda hate to take the risk, so I may end up just going with the standard 295/35/18's...
