I just ordered a set of C5 rims. They are 18x9.5 with a +54mm offset. I've been looking at tire choices and the Fuzion zri looks like a good choice. But they don't come in 275, only 265/35. Will these tires fit on my rims properly and look good? Any pics would be great. Thanks for the help

They will fit fine, there are only minimal differences between a 265 and 275

 

if you want a 275, then get a different tire. still LOTS of choices in that size

 

I have 265/35/18 on the front of my car. They're on C5 wheels as well. IMO they're too skinny for the wheel. The side rolls just a bit, and I just don't like it. It's not a big deal, but when I get new tires I'll be getting 275s.

 

Too late I just ordered them yesterday, they were a good price so thats alright. I called up tire rack and the guy told me that 265 is the recommended tire for a 9.5 rim. Black_Z, does the 265 tire affect the way the car drives or is just a little weird looking? The guy also told me that 265/35 on an 18x9.5 won't fit in the front, is that true?

ive got 275's on the FRONT of my t/a, so do many others

 

i woudlnt worry about the fuzion 265 not fitting, they roll the edges sooner than most on the fuzions so their 265 is more like a 255 and keeps on goin like that. they may get bigger when they wear down but when new they have a small contact patch for the mm size, dont get me wrong its still a good gripping tire, before i put the 3.73 gear in my car it was hard to turn em over. dead stop and floor it would and wouldnt depended on the road. may also hep that they were on a 16in. rim though... that sidewall helps a lot on takeoff
