I am looking for a 305/35/18, but I cant find a tire manufactuer that makes them. I have searched here and sennpeople with Nittos in this size, but they dont list them on there website, neither does goodyear, BFG, Sumitomo, Kumho. Can someone please provide me a link to this tire size for sale. Thanks in advance.

Go to discount tire directs website, they are a sponsor, and search for that size. You will find 2 types of nitto drag radials in that size.

Here is the link for others who are looking.

I am actually looking for more of a street tire than a drag radial. I searched there site and those two tires are the only thing they offer in a 305/X/18. Do you or anyone else here know of some other websites that offer this tire size.

anybody else have a suggestion, or different tire size they are running. Does anyone have a pic of 315's on a 10.5" wheel, I would like some close-up of the sidewall and some closeups of outer edges of the tire.

Do you have 315 on a 10.5" tire? I would like to see some pics of this (anyone???) As far as availability goes i definetly think 315's would be easier to find, just after reading a lot here, i have concluded that a 305 will fit my wheels the best.
