here are some measurements from falken

315/30R18 98W 28233848 11.0 10.5 - 11.5 25.5 12.6 813 11.7 8 32 51 1653 BLT -
Paul it looks like that front tire is taller than the rear. Not sure you want that...

I just put 255/40R18 on the 69 I am building for my wife and they look fine. 8.5" wheel with 5.5 backspacing and Tru-turn.
