I've sqeazed 335/35/17s on my car. I didn't have to dimple too much in the wheelhouses. I did roll the quarter lips though. I think my wheels are on a 28mm offset and they're 17 X 10.5s. They poked out from the quarters about about half inch. To me, they were borderline too much, but after going back to 315s, I think I'd rather have the 335s again.
Good luck.
Good luck.

yeah uh i dont want anything that doesnt look right or even pokes out a little bit i,ve seen 315s and they squeeze in real nice i havent seen 315's on 18 inch wheels yet, only 295s!!!
and heres another question i/m choosing tires and its come down to nittos in front and nitto dr in back or toyo proxes 4 in front and a toyo 295 in rear, the price differance is about 250$ roughly. do you think its worth it extra for the nittos and dr in rear?? keep in mind that the nitto dr in a 315 35 18 is 300 each at a wholesale price!!! WOW
