9.5 inch question

I read the sticky and saw that the final number was a 285 for a 9.5 inch tire...i it possible to run a 295 without any major issues? I want that big tire look out back....BTW, these are 18 inch c5 wheels (the fat 5 spokes)

I wouldn't do it, but thats not sayin it couldn't be done. It's just not suggested to go over 285.

295's REQUIRE a 10" wheel. End of discussion.

If you want wider tires buy wider wheels . . . .
