I have 305/40/18 Nittos on 18x9.5 C5 wheels and I think they are pushing it a bit. They recommend a min 10" wheel for 305's. Even if you do get them to fit the wheel they will hit the inner fender wells if they are a stock offset. I had previously clearenced mine for an old narrowed rear I had and these tires just barely cleared.

it'll probably fit, might look cool (depending upon yur defenition of that), but it wont perform like it should. Waste of money basically besides the look...what kind of power are you making? GMHTP ran a formula into the low 11's on a stock 16x8.5 rim with slicks/drag radials pulling the front tires off the ground at launch, no traction issues...

275s are the best size for a 9.5 inch wheel ive seen 305s but the tread starts to wrap around the shoulder of the tire. lets put it this way 345s come on the viper on 13.5 in wheels
