Anybody running 18x10's with 315/30/18 tires in the back?
I just ordered some new wheels yesterday, and am trying to decide on what tires to run on my wheels.
I am getting 4 18x10 wheels, and am thinking about running 315/30/18 tires in the back, and 275/35/18 tires in the front. Here is my logic behind this combo:
315/30/18
Sidewall - 3.7"
Diameter - 25.4"
Revs/mile - 793.0
275/35/18
Sidewall - 3.8"
Diameter - 25.6
Revs/mile - 788.0
Stock 245/50/16
Diameter - 25.6"
Revs/mile - 786
The 315/30's in the rear and the 275/35's in the front will have basically the same sizes on the sidewalls, tire height, etc, and are VERY close in diameter to stock wheel sizes as well.
I am wondering if anyone else around is running 18x10's with 315/30/18 tires???
I am also considering just running 295/35/18's all the way around, and have even considered 275/35/18's all around as well. I have a month or so to decide what tires to go with, so I have lots of time to consider it.
Thanks,

i thinkk you got some of your numbers wrong
a 315/30 would have a taller side wall than a 275/30
but you have the 275 at 3.8 and the 315 at 3.7
that isn't right
the 315 is actually 3.8 and the 275 is 3.3
i have seen 295's all around on 18's
they where TT2's 18x10 and had a 7 1/4 inch BS
they are on the gold rush trans am

Thanks for the replies so far...

I guess maybe I'll be the first one to do this?
