Default 18x10.5, Got pics of sidewalls?

So i have a set of rear 18x10.5s comming and i have to decide on a tire size.

was thinking 295, but may want to do something wider, just dont want the tire to buldge too far off the rim.

anywone have pics of their 18x10.5s with the tires on.

if so could you put what size the tire is?

thanks,

I had a 18x10.5 square setup, the fronts were GSD3 295-35-18 which was perfect fit, but you cannot get this size tire in the GSD3 anymore. The rears were 305-35-18 nitto 555R

I don't remember.. I bought em back in 06. SWORE they were 10.5's. They're almost 11" wide now with the tires on it and the sidewalls aren't even straight up and down. The tires could be a little wider. Was gonna do a 295 wide, but it will rub.

Just measured. Yes the car is filthy. The tape is lined up close to the sidewall. (Not the bulge) Hard to get an accurate measurement with the wheels on the car. I still don't think I'll be happy until I get 315's on there. (the car, it's not gonna work on the wheels.)
