Default Question on tires size......

Will a 295/35 R18 Tire fit a 9.5 wide wheel???? I am thinking about buying Drag Radials for my car but I am unsure if the 295's would fit and look right. It currently has 275/40ZR R18 and those look very uniform to the rim, it does match the rims very nicely, but I want DR's.... any help is apreciated.

285's are actually the largest you are supposed to put on a 9.5" wheel for saftey reasons.

Uhm . . . no it doesn't . . . read the manufacturer's specifications . . .

275/35ZR18 or a 285/35ZR18 are perfect fits.
