Default 305 MT Clearence question

Im putting my 18x10.5 305/35/r18 Mickey Thompsons back on my 99 SS this week. I know the wheels fit as the car is now my question is will these wheels clear with a 1.25" drop. will i have to roll/cut the fender wells? or will it fit okay without any rolling? Is anyone running this setup? if so please post some pictures!

We had to roll the quarter panels pretty much flush and massage the inside of the fender well just a little on my little brother's car. He has Strano springs and runs Hoosier slicks that are about the same width and height as the tires you are running. We run 15" wheels though.
