Default What tire for a 10" Rim

What is the smallest tire I can put on a 18x10 rim? 285/35/18?

Thanks,

you can put on the size tire that is recommended from the tire company...if it says 10-12" rim width...then you can put it on....but in general you might be able to get away with a 275...but why put such a small tire on a big rim? you usually buy wider rims so you can put wider tires on

Yeah I want to run a 295/35/18 but the problem is I don't know if I will be able to. I am getting iForged Evolutions 18x9 and 18x10 for my 98 Camaro and they said i can't really tell for sure until I fit the rim on the car whether or not i have to roll my fenders and I really don't wnat to do this... Thats why I may end up going with a narrower tire with the 10" rim...

These are pics of my iForged wheels..... Aero's..... baby.....
18X9's up front with a 265/35/18's
18X10 out back with 295/35's.....
i was running the Eiback Prokit and with my stereo out back i would rub a little and i did roll the inner fenders a little....... but not much..... you cant even tell... go for it you wont regret it.......
Heres the pics......
