Looking for a tire (315/45/18) Who makes one? I need some new rubber for my ZO6 wheels. I am looking for a section width between 305 and 315, hopefully a 45 sidewall height, for an 18in wheel. Looking for the cheapest tire out there lol. Anyone make it?

found a 305/45r18 in a nitto DR for about $240 a tire. Thats an odd size though
I also found a pic of 305/45r18 MT DR's on ZO6 rims...couldn't find a price though

Thats too big!! I have 315/30/18s on mine (I had to BFH mod, spacers, and they still touch on hard cornering!! My car is slammed though). 35 series would be the tallest that would fit in the wheel well IF you car is stock hieght!!
FYI
315/45/18 tires are 29" tall
315/40/18 tires are 27.92" tall
315/35/18 tires are 26.6" tall
315/30/18 tires are 25.40" tall (closest to stock hieght)

It'll fit.. I need it because I have a 3-speed (TH350) and will be getting 4.10s really soon, and I want to taller tire for daily driving to keep the RPMs lower.

My car only has 3/4 of an inch of clearance running a 30 series tire. granted my car is dropped 1.5" still im running a thinner tire.

lol I guess the picture really points out how bad it is.. If you see it in person it's not really that bad. Still too large of a gap though. I'm going to call a few places around and look for some cheap tires
