335/30/18 hoosier dot drag raidals on 18x10.5 ok i know the tire is too wide for a 10.5 already but just want to know if anyone here has ever tried it. oe wheels has a good deal on c6z06 rims 17x9.5 and 18x10.5 that i want to pick up and run a wide ass tire for racing and looks is this just way too unsafe and does anyone have a picture of the tires because i cant find one on the internet of this tire 335/30/18 hoosier dot drag radial with the white letters i know house of wheels has the c6z06 wheels in a 18x12 that will work but then ill spend an extra $ on them i will need to do alot of massaging to make these tires fit |
don't be an idiot and put 335s on a 10.5" wheel. if you absolutely use the 335, get the 12" wheel. if you just want a fat rear tire, put a nitto 315 on the 10.5" wheel. they look plenty wide! example: http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a49.../Dscn06532.jpg |

I don't know about the Hoosiers, but my Nitto 335/30/18 DR's fit my 18x10.5" wide C5 deep dishes just fine. There's a slight buldge, but nothing unsafe about it. http://i685.photobucket.com/albums/v...m/IMAG0125.jpg |
try it and let us know :angel: my rears are 11" wide and the specs for those specific tirse say minimum 12" wheel (but we all know ppl do manage toget away withthings) so i held out on getting those this time around...weird thing though the 17" version of those tires actually has a wider section width than the 18's but they do fit...just with 17" wheels:eyes: |

^^^I'll have some more pics up sometime this week, after I get a few more things done. I had to do a little BFH'ing, but not too much. Just the lower front part of the inner fender. I didn't even have to roll the fenders. They're just an 18x10.5", with a 54mm offset. I am running a 5/16" spacer in the back though. |
ok thanks! cant wait to see some more pics! |
Bringing up this thread. Any more pics of this? I'm tryin to decide on which tires to get on my next set of wheels here soon. |

Is that the 315/35/17 NT555? That is the only 315 that I know Nitto makes in the straight 555 Extreme radial, and that's what the tire you have on there looks like. I run the Nitto 555 on my T/A and my Monte SS so I know the tire well... I know they do the 555 Drag Radials in the 315 in the 18in size, but I don't think the tire in your photo is the drag radial. I'm almost positive your photo is the straight NT555 Extreme so must be the 315/35/17 size.. Correct????? Just wondering as I want wider tires than what I have on my T/A right now, and I love my Nitto's, but in the 18in size the widest they have are the one's I have now, the 285/35/18. (Unless I want to do their 295/45/18, which I don't want..) Just making sure there isn't a 315/18 Nitto out there (othrer than the DR) and I just don't know about it...... |
Yep, those are the NT555's. Just the radial. NOT the drag radial. The 315-35-17 DR's are comparable to a 275 M/T drag radial. Where as the 315 radials are much much wider. Here are my 315-35-17 nitto DR's with a 275-50-15 M/T et street radial http://i592.photobucket.com/albums/t...s/IMG_2156.jpg |
^ that's crazy. How is that possible? It's a measurement, how is there a variation in that between brands? |

I know this is an old thread but just wanted to show people how well 335/30/18 Hoosier drag radials fit on a 18x10.5. I will say I'm sure you are better off mounting these on a 12" rim as you will get more contact patch but these on a 6spd C6Z on 10.5's have seen 1.38 60fts. http://premium1.uploadit.org/scubast...00917-1731.jpg http://premium1.uploadit.org/scubast...00917-1730.jpg http://premium1.uploadit.org/scubast...00917-1728.jpg http://premium1.uploadit.org/scubast.../Hoosiers1.jpg |
Plenty of people run 335 Hoosiers on 18x10.5 wheels. |
i just put 345/35 a oe 18x10.5 wheel no problems at all but mines a vette |
why would you put a 345 on a 10.5 rim? thats just dumb. |
Great looking Vette! |
that silver vette looks sick! |
Wow... |
