That tire was made for the lightning truck. It might fit, but the tire is too tall.

For a 18x9.5 rim, the BFG 275/35/18 drag radial sounds like what you're looking for.

lol that tire is WAY too tall and i doubt it will even fit. nitto has a 35 series drag radial out now for an 18" wheel. that is the size you are looking for.the bfg's are good also they hook better but beware in wet weather.

some have tried on vettes, mustangs, fbods, all with the same results. BLAH! its a huge tire.

BFG has 275-35-18 & 295-35-18 drags that will fit your wheels.

Nitto has a 285-35-18 drag cming to the market in just under a month
