Default SOme questions I have!

So I want to get some 315's in the back soon and I am trading my stock rear end and my old tail lights to this guy for brand new 18 inch chrome Zo6 rims. Now are they are 11 inch wide zo6 rims out there? The ones I'm getting are 18's all around and they are 9.5 inches wide. Would I have to get them widened or what?

Will 315's Fit it 18x10.5 Zo6 rim??

315s should fit a 10.5'' rim. What about running a 30-series tire?

There's plenty of those:

I wasn't sure about a 35 or 40 series tire with 18'' rims, so I figured I'd go 30 series to compensate for the larger overall size of the wheel itself.
