295/35/18 on an 18x10" wheel? So I'd like to order tires for my CCW's tomorrow.
I plan on going with 295/35/18 BFG KDW2's up front on the 18x10" wheel and 315/30/18 BFG DR's out back on the 18x11" wheel.
I just wanted to double check and make sure that the 295/35/18 is good up front?
Also, do you tink I'd be better off with the 295 or the 275 KDW2 on the 18x10" wheel?
I'd like the tires to sit very square and not taper in AT ALL from the rim which is why I'm guessing the 295 tire would be best

Im running 295/35/18 on my 10.5" wheels and they fir perfect. I dont think the extra 1/4" per side less width will make any difference in appearance or buldge.

275-35-18 is a better match anyway for 315-30-18 (same size that is)
BFG does make them in that size too
They also have a 285-30-18, but that is a 2.8% difference from the rear tires where the 275-35-18 would be only a 0.5% difference

Just ordered them today and that's exactly what I did
The 295/35 would have been quite a bit bigger than the 315/30 and would have caused all sorts of problems
I really hope the 275's look good

I wouldn't have run a 275/35/18 on a 10" wheel. But hey whatever...
You would have been fine running the 295/35/18s on a 10" wheel. They would fit fine at stock height, not sure what your plans are for lowering.
BFG sizes are usually pretty dead on. I would run a 9" wheel with a 275.
