Default Any has this on his 18x10.5? Fittment concern

BFG Drag Rdials 315/30/18 Tire. The bfg site recomends it for 11-12 inch. My wheel is 18x10.5 with 56mm offset.

Here's the details where to see they mention it for 18x11-12:

Just wanted to ask if any has this tire on his 18x10.5 or would that be pushing it?

Thanks a lot.

Is your priority drag racing or handling? They might bulge a bit, but for drag racing i'd think they'd be alright. Ive ran tires that bulge a bit before with no problems. For handling you're going to want a tire that fits the rim a little better i would think

I'm not a drag guy no, it's just for street use. So you wouldn't use this one if u were me?

Thanks for the info. The question is if the 315 brand u got is "Ok" to use on a 10.5 rim according to that tire's manufacturer . If it says it "should" be used on 11-12 rim and you used it on 10.5 then that's good news for me. I know some 315s are ok to use on 10.5 rims.
