295/35/18 or bigger?
I'm getting ready to order some ccw wheels for my car using the goodyear gsd3 tires all around. my question is should I run 295/35/18 out back or something else. I'm getting 18x10 in the front and 18x11 in the back. If you guys can help me before 6pm I would appreciate it.

the widest they make that tire in is a 295 for the GSD3 if your set on GSD3's then you have no other option or you can go with a different tire like BFG and run a 295/305 or 295/315 set up.

Seems to be a rash of CCW ordering going on!!! I just ordered a set as well and decided on the 275/295 combo for a few reasons, tire price being one of the major factors. I just couldn't justify all the extra money for a 315 over a 295 and I am not going to daily drive with drag radials.

What the ****, I order CCWs last fall and now everyone is ordering them!!!
Welcome to the club guys, pretty ******* sweet club if you ask me. Anyhow I run 295 GSD3s out back and they fit like a glove. I've posted my pics numerous times so do a search or if it wasn't 3:15 AM and I didn't have work in a few hours I would post some.
Anyhow, you'll all need to roll your rear fender lips. I chopped my GSD3s a little and got lucky I didn't ruin them. I have the fender roller and rent it to members. Send me a PM if anyone is interested.

Add a front sway bar if you want a big effect on handling
