265/50/18 will they fit?

[73challenger_TN]

I was wondering if anybody has ran this tire size? I am wanting to run this on 18x8 rim with 4.5 backspacing. The tire would be 10.5 in wide and 28.43 in tall. I am running HD springs in the rear. What size do you recommend for a 18x7 rim in the front? 225/35/18?

a 275 /60 15 is close to 28 " tall & fits , th 10.5" width is no issue , so as long as the backspacing is correct no porb

just for reference i have 295/50/18s which are 28.5 tall, but on 18x9 5.9bs wheels. The front i have 17x8s, 4.5bs and 255/45/17s

hey 73challengertn, how did that work out for that sounds like what i am wanting to do .... i am wanting 18's all the way around  with a fatty on the back!!!!!!!!! did you have any relocation kits? or just the hd springs?

I ended up using 255/45/18s which should have been the same size as my old 255/60/15. They rubbed some on one side but I did not trim the lip around my quarter when it was installed. But, they did not rub after a little work with a grinder. I think im going to buy a relocation kit next winter. I already have a b body rear to swap in. I just need to burn these tires off this summer! :-) I'd love to run a 295 or a 305 sometime.

295s are squeezed in here as far as i can go without modifying. I'd think with a b-body diff you should be able to go well more than 305's.
