Default 335's on a 10.5" rim?

Has anyone tried a 335 on a 10.5" rim? I have a set of black torque thrust M's and really dont want to go to a different wheel to get an 11 inch rim. I am thinking about ordering 2 new wheels for the back of the car because it currently has 17x8's on all four corners. Just wondering how much the tire would buldge out on a 10.5" wheel. And pics would be great. Thanks!

This guy has 335s on 17 x 11 wheels: https://ls1tech.com/forums/wheels-ti...ions-335s.html
I personally think they have too much bulge, but everyone else thinks they look great. Anyhooooo... look at the way his tires sit on the wheels and then imagine what a smaller width wheel will look like.

IMHO they will bulge way too much.. The link that carlos posted, i think that bulges WAY too much.

Me personally, I would run a 315/35 on the 10.5 and be done with it. The 315s are wide, and look great from behind.

I have some widened 00 WS6 wheels with 315/35s and love them.

Heres a shot of my 315s on my 11" wide WS6s.

You'll be fine, they'll look good. The worst looking tire/rim combo is when the tire is flat with the rim, that looks gay. A little bulg looks good.

I'm personally doing 335's on 18 x 11.5 rims.........
