Default 18" tire sizes-need 12" wide/28"tall

The 315/35r17's on my 71 Nova look to short to me and dont fill the wheelwell very well. I think a 18" rim and a 28" tall tire would look better. Seems like all the wide tires are 26" tall.

Actually the Nitto 305 45 18 is almost 29"...I think it's 28.78" if I remember correctly. Section width is 12.02" on a 10" rim and puts about 11" on the pavement.
