Hello,

Can i fit 295s on my 18x10.5 wheels all around or do i have to stretch 275s? I have a 1999 R34.

Thanks!

Don't know if it will help, but I am running 265/35/18 on 18X9.5 wheels. Tires have a slight stretch, but not to bad. I would think that 295's would fit on a wheel 1 inch wider than what I have.

The answer is yes and no.

Whats the offset of the 10.5? What's the brand and actual width of the 295. All 295's are not the same.

We fit 305's all around, but we had Z-Tune fenders in the front, and we rolled the fenders in the rear.

You will have an easier time with a 275, but if you do everything right, you can get the 295 to fit.

thanks for the info guys. they will be the toyo r888. i will have to measure them when i get the them. i am thinking the 275 will be too stretched, but not sure if the 295s will fit with my fenders. the 10.5x18 is the volk te37. cant remember the offset at the moment...

18 x 10.5 TE37, I think they will be +15 or +12. 275 is not stretched on a 10.5 its pretty square.

Enough camber, enough rolling the 295 will fit.

Here are the 305's on an 11.
