Default will 275/35/18 fit on an 18x8.5 wheels?

Well, long story short, I have 265/35/18 and 295/30/19 right now, and apparently that messes with my ABS because of the height difference. I've had more luck finding 275/35/18's than 255/40/18's. I was just wondering how well a 275 would fit on a 8.5" wide wheel.

Nope. A 245/40R18 would be a good fit.

I'm sure it would FIT, but it probably wouldn't look too good, and idk how safe it would be.

I once saw a guy put a 285 on an 18x8" wheel. Looked like total dog crap, and I'm sure he had a few problems down the road.

Are you look for a certain brand/model tire in a 255/40/18?

I've also heard a hamster will fit up one's butt, does that make it OK to do?

Thumbs down

Since people are too dence to follow proper tire mounting proceedures this one is no longer being discussed . . .

Just because someone is stupid enough to mount too big a tire onto too small a wheel DOES NOT give that person to say it's OK to do, I did it . . .
