295's on 9" wheels? - Lateral-g Forums

I've been wondering the same thing regarding 8" wheels. Is 255 as wide as I can go without looking too bulgy?

255/35 on an 8" wheel. Not bulgy at all

Is that about max for a 8" or could I go wider without the bulge?

CamaroPat, Whats your budget for a set of wheels? We may be able to get you in a set of custom wheels.

Putting a 295 on a 9" wide wheel will make for a very squirmy sidewall. If you ever want performance handling it's a bad idea. 275 is actually on the wide side for a 9" even though it fits and comes on many cars from the factory. I think the C5 Z06 is a good example 9.5" wide front wheel with a 265. Nice tight sidewall for a performance vehicle.
